Now that finals are over, we can take a step back and breathe. No more notebooks, highlighters, textbooks or all-nighters until August which leaves plenty of room in our calendars for activities when we're not out there working to make that bank. When you live in a city such as St. Louis, the number of things to do are endless!
1. Go to the St. Louis Zoo and hang out with the animals
2. Head on out to Six Flags!
Whether you're going for the rides, the food, or Hurricane Harbor, there's a ride for every thrill level! Use your pass to bring a friend for free or for half off on select days or buy a one-day ticket and get your money's worth! For more information, visit Six Flags St. Louis' website!
3. See a concert at The Pageant or Delmar Hall
There is ALWAYS someone to see at either one of these venues and tickets are usually pretty cheap! Check out The Pageant's website for a full calendar of artists.
4. Go to a baseball game at Busch Stadium
Nothing like a baseball game on a warm summer evening, complete with nachos and the souvenir soda! Cardinal's games are always fun, especially on giveaway nights! For a full list of games this summer, click here.
5. Attend the last Vans Warped Tour
With bands like AS IT IS and Waterparks on the lineup, who wouldn't want to go to Warped? Plus, this summer is the final run, so you're kind of obligated to go.
6. Be a kid again at the City Museum
With plenty of attractions to explore and climb on, who wouldn't feel like a kid again?
7. Finally take that trip up in the arch
It's the one thing every St. Louisian has talked about but has never actually completed, myself included. Cross it off your bucket list this summer and go up in the arch! You know you want to.
8. Relive your childhood at the Magic House
Remember that pizzeria and those fish with the magnets that were so hard to catch? I've been dying to go back to the Magic House.
9. Bring out your inner scientist at the St. Louis Science Center
I haven't been here in years but this listicle is making me want to make that special trip!
10. Admire all the artwork at the art museum
There's over 30,000 pieces of art and free admission! How cool?!
With a city like St. Louis, there's always a fun place to explore! The possibilities are endless.
