The one thing that most people do over summer break is hangout with their friends. Doing some activities with your friend group can make the day fun and memorable. Here is a list of hangout ideas you and your friends can do.

#1: Going shopping with your best friends. The Galleria Mall or even the Arden Mall would be the perfect place to shop. If you are on a budget, try thrift shopping. Going thrift shopping is a great idea because you can get cute clothes that are cheap.  

#2: Go on a road trip for the weekend. There is a lot of fun local places to explore, such as Lake Tahoe, San Francisco, or Six Flags.  

#3: Explore the city. Going to the small shops in the area, trying the food they have, or simplifying seeing what the store sells can be fun. While in the city, make sure to take lots of pictures for Instagram

#4: Going to a museum to learn about the history of a certain place or things can be interesting. For example, go to the Old Railroad Museum, Crocker Art Museum, or even the State Capitol.

#5: Do outdoor activities like going on a hike, exploring the trail, or riding a bike. Go to the beach and spend the day there. Maybe even have a picnic at the park.

These are just some ideas of what you and your friends can do on your free time over the summer.
