Summer Fun on a Budget

Get outside, get moving, and stay cool without breaking the bank! Summer’s here, and it’s the perfect time to soak up the sunshine, connect with your community, and stay active — all while sticking to your budget. 

Here’s how you can thrive this season:

• Explore local parks or trails. Nature is one of the best (and free!) ways to refresh your body and mind. Many parks have splash pads, picnic areas, and fitness stations.
• Join a walking, biking, or outdoor fitness group. A community fitness group is a great way to stay motivated and meet like-minded people with the same goals.
• Hydrate with a reusable water bottle. It’s eco-friendly and cost-saving. Bonus: add frozen fruit or mint leaves for a refreshing level-up!
• Seek out free or low-cost events in your area. Check your city's parks and recreation website, local event calendars, and neighborhood social media pages.

Swapping high-cost entertainment for outdoor adventures can help you stretch your budget and reallocate extra cash toward your savings goals, debt payments, or even your next getaway!

Stay well. Stay cool. Stay financially strong.
