Back to School Bucket List

As we are all wondering how summer flew by so quickly and school is right around the corner, make the most of these last few weeks of summer with our Back to School Bucket List!   Go to the Western Idaho Fair: Photo credit to Unsplash. The Western Idaho Fair, a beloved tradition since 1897, is back this year from August 16th to 25th. Immerse yourself in an exciting showcase of agriculture, ranching, and fun activities at this classic summertime event. This family-friendly fair offers something for everyone with thrilling rides, delicious fair food, live concerts, and captivating exhibitions. Tickets are on sale now and can be found here.   Float the river: Photo credit to LBRE. One of Boise’s signature attractions is the Boise River, a 102-mile-long tributary of the Snake River that is a beloved spot to float down, enjoy the scenery, and relax during the warmer months of the year. Before the summer season is officially over, make sure to squeeze in one more refreshing float down the Boise! The put-in for the Boise River float starts at Barber Park, located in SE Boise off Eckert Road (about 6 miles from downtown). For more information on floating the Boise River, check out this blog.   Go to the Farmers Market: Photo credit to Unsplash. Heading to a farmers market, whether the Boise Farmers Market or the Capital City Public Market, is the perfect Saturday morning activity. From shopping for local and fresh produce, baked goods, jams, and other food items, to grabbing breakfast and a coffee, the farmers market is an awesome place to wander around and support local businesses. The Capital City Public Market is at the Grove Plaza on Saturdays from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., and the Boise Farmers Market is at 1500 Shoreline Drive, Boise ID on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.   Venture out on a camping trip: Photo credit to Unsplash. One of the best things about summer is the warm nights perfect for camping. A last-minute camping trip doesn’t need to be a challenging endeavor, all it takes is packing your car with the essentials (tent, sleeping bag, food, etc.) and choosing a campsite near Boise. You can even make it a backyard camping trip for a fun and easy experience at home!   Enjoy a pool day: Photo credit to Unsplash. Stay cool in the last days of the summer and go swimming before pools close up and it gets too cold! Head down to a public pool (take a look at this blog to see all the public pools in Boise), or have a “beach” day at Quinn’s Pond to enjoy the last of outdoor swimming this summer.
