An Awesome Summer Bucket List for the Whole Family




I don’t know about you guys but at the start of every summer, I always wax optimistic about all of the things I’ll do and all the places I’ll go.  I always intend to take lots pf pictures so I can create the best photo album ever!  Then the day after Labor Day, I look back at it all and wonder, “Where did my summer go?”

So, in an effort to help us make the most of our last few weeks of summer, Family & MWR has developed quite the Summer Bucket List for kids, teens, couple, and families.  Hopefully, you’ll be able to check off quite a few of these things.  If not, you’ve got your work cut out for you!  What a nice mountain of work to get through, though, huh?

  • Play in the rain
  • Camp in the back yard, on the balcony, or on the deck

As usual, be sure to take lots of pictures and post any you want to share to Facebook or Instagram and tag us @jbmhhfmwr.  Also, if we left any cool activities off the list, leave us a comment.  We just may be able to get it in under the wire!
