10 Things to do Before the End of Summer
The warm weather is fading fast, so we’re getting our summer fun in while we can. Here are our top ten to-dos before the deep freeze hits.
1. Have a gelato-off pitting le glacier Bilboquet against Havre au Glace and newcomer Kem Coba.
2. Learn to surf or stand-up paddleboard on the lake with KSF.
3. Head down to the Old Port to find the Monsiour Felix and Mr. Norton mobile bakery and stuff yourself with cookies.
4. Take a day trip to Balnea, just to jump in the lake.
5. Book a wine route road trip with Kava Tours, get sauced, and get a lift home.
6. Drive just across the border to Ontario and book a VIP cabana at Calypso Water Park.
7. Ride The Cobra at La Ronde.
8. Host a local-ingredients-only potluck and hit one of Montreal’s markets for fresh fruits and veggies.
9. Hit the end of season sales and pick up items you know will still be in next summer.
10. Run through a sprinkler (on a stranger’s lawn).
