Hey there, collegians. We know you are so terribly sad about school being so close to over. We know that you really don’t want to be on the sunny beaches and would much rather prefer to continue getting pasty inside the libraries…
KIDDING!
It’s obvious no one can wait for summer!
However, if you aren’t one of the Yalies who will be relaxing on tropical beaches or exploring different countries, then this article is for you. If you are planning on staying in or near New Haven this summer, then have no fear…for it will still be super fun and you can make it even better by attending some of these events in the area.
