Just because the unofficial start of summer may not include as many friends and family at the usual BBQs, pool parties, brunch, or weekend get-away, does not mean we can’t find socially distant ways to enjoy our new normal.
Thanks to our friends at Harvard University’s Outings and Innings (O&I) we are sharing some of the many activities O&I have pulled together. You may follow them on Twitter and Facebook for the most up to date events.
You may also get daily listings of activities from The Boston Calendar (TBC). Although TBC expands past the Boston-area, you may want to visit your specific town or city’s online calendar for more local activities.
