It’s officially spring and outdoor activities are in full swing! Here are some fun things to do to take advantage of this warm weather and soak up some sunshine! 

Go for a walk!  

One of the best and most affordable ways to enjoy the spring weather is to go out and take a walk. Whether it’s on your own, with your dog, or with friends, it’s always nice to see the flowers in bloom. Downtown Bel Air, the Ma and Pa trail, and even just your neighborhood are great places to walk this spring! 

Baseball games! 

Baseball is a great sport to watch in the spring, not just for the game but also for the atmosphere. Our CMW baseball and Softball teams are in season, so they are a great option to see a game. If you are interested in seeing a minor league game, the Aberdeen Iron Birds are also a great option with prices ranging from $8 to $32. And of course, if you prefer the major leagues, you have to get out to Oriole Park to see an Orioles game sometime this spring, and the average ticket cost is $79, but you can get seats for much cheaper. 

Day trips! 

As the weather warms up, weekend trips are more common. Even if it’s just a day, or a night or two, it’s always nice to get a change of scenery and get outside. A day trip to DC (only about an hour and a half drive) to see the museums and monuments is a great way to spend a warm day. If the beach is more for you, ocean city and Delaware aren’t too far away either, and are great places to get away for a night or two. 

Amusement parks! 

Amusement parks are opening again, and there is no better way to kick off the warm weather seasons than some thrill rides. Hershey Park, Six Flags, or even Busch Gardens are some of the best ones we have nearby. Hershey is aways updating their park with new terrifyingly fun rides, and they always have the beloved chocolate to cool off and get a sweet treat when the day gets hot. 

The zoo/aquarium! 

Taking a trip to see animals or the sea creatures is always a fun day. The zoo is a great way to be outside in nature, and if the temperature gets too high, or your allergies are getting the best of you, the aquarium is a great way to get out of the heat or the pollen this spring! 

All of these are great, affordable options to be outside and enjoy the warm weather this spring! You don’t have to wait until summer to enjoy the beautiful weather and get outside!
