The summer is here! It is getting hot, and things are starting to slow down for the summer season. Whether you spend this season with your family or alone, there are plenty of activities to do that are fun, healthy, and great for bonding and creating beautiful memories.

Local Activities

Throughout the year and during the summer, there are many activities for you and your family to enjoy. Free events will pop up if you research events around your area on Facebook and other social media pages. Events like night markets, farmer’s markets, yoga, and fitness classes can be available. These are great ways to stay active, enjoy activities for free with your family, and explore your hometown.

Grilling Season

Summer evenings are perfect for grilling. Call your family and friends and make some turkey or beef sliders with a side of grilled veggies. Make a delicious lemonade sweetened with stevia or monk fruit, play a few outdoor or table games, bond with family, and create memories together.

Go for a Swim

If you are near the beach or lake, organize a swim day with your family for the summer weekends. If that is not an option, check your community pool, as it may be free. However, some may require the purchase of a day pass, but they are usually affordable.

Explore the Town

We focus on vacationing at other places, but what our hometowns have to offer! Check out what your town has to offer! Is there a zoo, aquarium, park, museum, Mini golf, etc.? Plan a day out of exploration with your family and enjoy your town!
