Get The Most Out of Your Summer

Kristi Morgan — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 18:26:00 GMT

Are you taking advantage of the summer days? There is so much to do during the summer. Ride your bike along the Brushy Creek Trail, take a dip in one of Round Rock's three swimming pools, join that new club you have been wanting to try, get involved with volunteer work or take your dog to the dog park for a play-date. I always feel that I have more time during the summer. If you feel the same way I do, then start doing something fun with your extra time. Take advantage of the great parks, events, and classes in your community.

Just to remind you, some summer events to look out for are: Summer Concert Series, Movies in Your Park, Cultural Summer Series, new classes at the Clay Madsen Center and sport leagues for adults and children. It is a great time to get involved and enjoy these summer days. Although we might complain about the heat, as Texans, we know deep down that this is our favorite part of the year, so enjoy it!
