There are so many ways to fi ll your 93 days of summer. Take advantage of all the Lehigh Valley has to off er. I guarantee you will make memories that last way beyond summer’s end!
Dear Readers,
Did you know that summer is exactly 93 days long? Or, if you ask me, 93 days short. Summer is hands-down the best sea- son. I know it, you know it… students and teachers certainly know it.
It’s the time of year when we feel the warmth of the sun and smell blooming fl owers and the aroma of fresh cut lawns. It’s the time of year we can walk barefooted and feel the grass beneath our toes. It’s the perfect time to sit outside in the eve- ning, listen to crickets and see the fi refl ies shine in the night.
There’s plenty of daylight in which to eat al fresco, do some gardening or take a nighttime dip in the pool. There are parks to visit, trails to explore, fairs to eat our way through and base- ball to be played. In the Lehigh Valley we are lucky enough to have so many venues, so close to home. On any given day or night our options include an IronPigs baseball game, Dorney Park, the Lehigh Valley Zoo, Dutch Springs, ArtsQuest, the Valley Preferred Cycling Center, and much, much more.
