14 Jul IT’S SUMMER AND THERE ARE SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS TO DO!
If you are fortunate enough to live in a wonderful New Home subdivision like The Trails of Lily Lake, you won’t have to stray far from home to create a sensational and invigorating set of larks to enjoy with family and friends or just on your own!
We encourage everyone to take advantage of living in such close proximity to the Trans Canada Trails, which are okay in the winter if you’re a cold and winter sports aficionado, but now that the warmth of Summer has hit….we can ALL have some fun, so lets get on those trails!
Take a little picnic lunch and hike or bike your way over to Jackson Creek Park, breathing in the fresh air and letting your eyes feast on the beauty of nature that will surround you. You may even have the joy of spotting some of our wildlife as you adventure out, and you will definitely be delighted with the fluctuating, trilling, chirping and warbling of the many variations our Ontario birds’ little throats emit! Cast off your shoes and socks and wade in the cool stream! The trails are definitely where I would be looking for new adventures every day!
If you are also one that owns a new home by Dietrich Homes in the Trails of Lily Lake, you will have a place that is so large and welcoming, it’s hard to even curb the many ideas for the limitless fun you can create, merely by doing some of the simple things in life….Like welcoming all to a BBQ… with games for the kids… plenty of good food and drink for all and it can be such a wonderful way to get to know the neighbours.
How about water games for young and old in the back yard? The internet has hundreds of suggestions for making your summer backyard water world fun for children, but lets be honest….we love it too!
Now onto the “HUNTS” those crazy searches that young and old alike want to participate in! You can create any theme…”Pirate” theme with clues planted around and in the home, or along the trail….leading to a Treasure chest filled with Gold coins, jewels and swords …..”Scavenger”…who can find the most items on the list in the shortest time?……”Nature” take pictures of many different sights along the trail or in the neighbourhood to win 1st 2nd and 3rd prize….You get the idea!
How about good ole riding through the neighbourhood…..have a bike?….oldest to youngest can bike together…..What about scooters?….the safe vehicle for all, if you’re not afraid to be seen having fun ….for the more adventurous ….pull out those inline skates and skateboards and enjoy zipping by everyone, breezes ripping against your face and body.
Don’t forget the sports! Baseball, road hockey, Volleyball, tennis, badminton, swimming and so much more!
Make or buy a new kite and watch for a windy day…..then let it sail! Homemade little boats….float them in the stream! Help your kids build a treehouse, fort or tent for a night campout.
Well….what are we waiting for?? Let’s make our Summer-Fun Bucket Lists and head out for some pleasurable, new escapades and exploits! We won’t let the indoors pull us away!
