It’s time to start taking advantage of the warm weather in the NOCO! Shed your big coat and enjoy the outdoors while you still can. After a lengthy winter, we all know that fifty degrees can feel like summer, so if you’re looking for a few ideas on ways to spend your time outside, we’re here to help!

 

The barbeque pit behind Whitman. This little spot, equipped with a cute brick patio and a built-in grill, has the perfect setup for a nice weekend afternoon! Grab some friends, some drinks, your grilling tools, and have an epic outdoor BBQ. Bring some speakers and a Frisbee or Spikeball along, and you are all set for the next few hours (just be sure to clean up your mess afterwards!).

 

Eat outside at a restaurant. Not a fan of barbeque? No problem! If you like Mexican food, the rooftop at Cactus in Potsdam is a great spot to have a meal while enjoying the weather.  Cactus has a great environment for a fun night out, as it has a vibrant ambiance and a large menu to choose from.

 

 

Get into nature. If you prefer a more peaceful outdoor experience, take a trip over to Lampson Falls. This is a beautiful spot to visit, and it is not too far away! Grab a group of friends and venture to the falls for a relaxing hangout where you will be sure to catch some UV’s!
