End Of Summer 2022

As summer draws to a close, there might be things we still want to do, or places we still want to go. Or, maybe we want to look back at all the awesome things we’ve already done over the summer before school begins. There’s still plenty left to do and talk about in Summer 2022.

There is still time to have some summer fun, and there are plenty of unique ways to celebrate it's end. VisitPrinceton.org has created a blog post detailing several places to visit across New Jersey, each with great food to try, sights to see, and warm weather to enjoy. If you wish to have one last and great trip in New Jersey, this list is surely for you.


10 Summer Bucket List Ideas


A bucket list is defined as a list of goals you want to achieve in your lifetime. Many people have taken to creating "summer" bucket list, detailing their plans they want to complete before summer's end. We've found another blog post, this one from blog.tentree.org, that has a ton of ideas for the summer list, including a hike, a camping trip, or just a chill beach day. While there isn't much time left for this year's summertime, these ideas could definitely be used for Summer of 2023.


Note: We look forward to welcoming familiar and new faces for the Fall. As schedules may change, the school year starts, and other responsibilities.
