3. The sounds of summer are best enjoyed outdoors!
Throughout the summer a variety of parks and venues offer outdoor concerts that make for great family fun. Often with amenities, and even food trucks, outdoor concerts are the premier event for an evening. Bring chairs or a blanket and pack your picnic basket. The kiddos will love running around the open spaces and it's a fun date for couples or time to hang with friends.
