WHAT TO DO WITH ALL THIS SUNLIGHT?
How to Celebrate the Longest Day of the Year
Catch Some Waves The summer solstice also happens to fall right after International Surfing Day, so why not enjoy the extra hours of sun by road tripping out to the beach to catch some waves? The official International Surfing Day website, surfrider.org/isd, has lots of information and lists great ways to celebrate. You might even be surprised to find awesome events near you!
We call the summer solstice the “longest day of the year,” and though there aren’t really more hours in the day, extended hours of sunlight do make June 21 feel longer. So, why not do something with that extra light? We can’t all make a pilgrimage to Stonehenge to watch the sunrise, but there are still plenty of ways to enjoy the summer solstice wherever you live. Try Outdoor Yoga Yoga is a popular activity for exercise and stress relief, practiced by millions across the world. The International Day of Yoga is held on June 21 each year. Expert and beginner yoga enthusiasts alike celebrate by taking their yoga mats outside. Find ways to get involved by visiting idayofyoga.org.
Shakespeare in the Park The week surrounding the summer solstice is often referred to as midsummer. William Shakespeare’s beloved
comedy “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” takes its name from, so what better way to mark the occasion than with some of the Bard’s classic works? Theater groups all across the country put on outdoor performances, and it’s a wonderful chance for the community to come out and enjoy some of literature’s greatest stories.
There are numerous celebrations surrounding the summer solstice. So why waste a sunny day? Get out there and have some fun!
