This week’s tip: Play Disc Golf at Fort Buenaventura! 🌲🎒
Why we love it: Did you know this is a world-championship level course? "The Fort" features an awesome 18-hole course surrounded by beautiful trees and the Weber River.
Spartan Tip: If you don't have official disc golf discs, a regular frisbee works great for beginners! Keep an eye out for the local wildlife while you play 🦆.
The Cost: Just $4 per player to play the course (cash box or QR code at Hole #1)! 💬
📸 SHOW US YOUR THROW: We want to see those Spartan trick shots! Drop a picture of your family playing at the Fort in the comments, or tell us: Who in your family won the round? 👇

☀️ Summer Vacation Tips & Ideas Series, Spartans?! This week, we are buckling up for a nostalgic road trip down memory lane where you are the official tour guide!
This week’s tip: The "History of You" Drive! 🗺️🎙️
The Mission: Parents, take your junior high students on a driving tour of your own past right here around the local area.
The Route: Show them the spots that defined your own teenage years—where you had your very first summer job, the neighborhood where you used to hang out at 14, or the exact place you and your spouse first met!
The Secret: Junior high kids might act too cool to care, but they secretly absolutely love hearing their parents' "old school" stories and realizing you were once their age, too.
The Cost: $0! (Just a little bit of gas!)
💬 LET'S HEAR IT: What local spot from your past always cracks your kids up when you talk about it? Drop a comment below and tell us one "old school" story or landmark your family is visiting this week! 👇
