Hey friends hey, Happy Wednesday to ya! This month is flying by and I can’t believe that my birthday is in two short days! Unlike most years where I want to celebrate with a big gathering, dinner, travel and more, this year I am hoping to take it easy. My only birthday wish was to enjoy some fun game time with my friends and have a weekend where I don’t do any work at all. And I can tell you right now that I already feel like this birthday will be great one just because I’m not trying to cram a bunch of activities into one short day!
So y’all, not only for my birthday do I plan to take it easy but also throughout the summer I plan to do the same with the help of Circle K! In my sweet little town, Circle K serves as our one-stop-shop for stocking up on snacks before travel, grabbing a quick lunch in the midst of the day or picking up a sweet treat over the weekend. For me, my guilty pleasure to indulge in during trips and summer fun has always been Mountain Dew, which I can get for only 79 cents on fountain in a Polar Pop cup found only at my local Circle K all year around! Total win/win, am I right?! While exploring the town with my friends a few weekends back, we discovered a shuffle-board park about one block down from our university and immediately started planning game days during the summer months. Now y’all, I have lived in this town for six years and I had no idea this area existed, so you can imagine my surprise and excitement when we stumbled across this park! Right around this area is a tennis court, baseball field for the community youth team and The Greenway (several mile long pathway around our town), all places I plan on us enjoying this summer with my Dew Polar Pop® from Circle K. Plus, our skatepark is being renovated and concerts in the park are being planned, all that we are planning to enjoy this summer! So friends, what fun activities are available in your town? Here are my top 5 things I did last year.
1 | Sunday concerts in the park
2 | Weekly Umbrella & Farmers Market
3 | Pirate Fest
4 | Skateboard contest
5 | Air U
I’m most excited for the concerts in the park and th skateboarding competition that’s happen in August! If you love the same activites + live in Long Beach, you have to check out The Dew Tour! Circle K is a lead partner of The Dew Tour. The Dew Tour is FREE, open to the public and will take place June 28 – July 1, 2018. Altogether, it’s an innovative contest series and content platform that brings together the world’s best skateboarders, snowboarders, skiers, artists, brands, and fans in a celebration of creativity and style. In the comments, let me know what summer activities you are looking forward to most + your favorite snacks from Circle K!
