We’re finally in the summer season and the number of events and activities to be enjoyed in the beautiful sunshine are limitless. Fireworks stands have opened up around the valley and plans are being made for fun 4th of July celebrations. As we all enjoy the wonderful summer months here in the Treasure Valley, be sure to take advantage of the many concerts, outdoor movie nights, and festivals lined up in our area over the next couple weeks.
The summer season and all of the events and activities in the next few months are definitely worth getting excited about! Our neighbors and communities have been hard at work organizing events like a kids triathlon, horse shows, auto shows, cornhole tournaments… even a taco & margarita festival!
We’ve compiled an exciting list full of fun things to do here in the Boise, Nampa, Eagle, and Meridian areas this month, so if you’ve been waiting for a reason to get out and explore, now you have almost 80!
These events are just some of the things that make Idaho a great place to live. If you find yourself looking to move in the near future and have questions about the best options for your new home, give our team a call at 208.278.4300.
