Memorial Day is the official kick-off to the best Summer of your life. It’s wrought with possibility, new friends, new adventures, trips to the beach, sailboats, and “mussel Mondays.” It’s the perfect time to get out there, judge a chili cook off, play some baseball, and meet your new BFF’s. There's plenty of stuff going on. Go do something before it's 110 outside. Make sure to #WDDI the good ones.
