As school winds down, and we look ahead to summer, The Vanguard came up with some fun activities you can try during your next three months of freedom. Enjoy, and happy summer, everyone!
- Tap into your inner dad, and barbecue something for the Fourth of July.
- Have a competition with your friends to see who can achieve the lowest screen time.
- Don’t scare the current eighth graders about Bivouac. Please.
- Go down a rabbit hole, and see how far you can get!
- Wear sunscreen. We’re looking at you, crew team.
- Read a book that isn’t summer reading. Turns out not every book is deeply conflicted and depressing once you branch away from the school-regulated ones.
- Wake up early, and play “Here Comes the Sun” by The Beatles while the sun rises. Although oddly specific, it’s an ethereal experience. Bonus points if you’re on the beach while it happens.
- Drive down the highway with your arms out the sunroof.
- Revisit your childhood for a day. Some ideas: Take a bubble bath, complete a coloring page, build a sandcastle, construct a pillow fort or try hula-hooping.
- To the seniors — enjoy the moment as you walk across that graduation stage. Although you complained at times, these last four years have been undoubtedly special. Bonus points if you do a backflip.
