When I decided to list Summer Fun Events in the Tri-State, I had no idea that our area had so much to offer. Therefore, I apologize in advance that the following is NOT an all-inclusive listing of events in the Tri-State, but it will certainly give you the incentive to search for more. For a more inclusive listing, simply type "events" in the search bar on your Facebook page or search the internet for year-round events listings in your area. Happy Summer - Enjoy!
