August Adventures and Must-See Events 📅

👋 How is August already here?👋

Seriously, how is it August already? Time is accelerating so fast. Fall is coming soon, be sure to hold out until then. Stay hydrated and keep going to events ❤️ 

🗺️ New Feature Alert: Interactive Map 🗺️ 

I created an interactive map of the list that goes out every week through PamPam. PamPam is a startup out of Philadelphia that lets users create custom maps and guides for their community, think Google Maps but cuter with stickers! Let me know what you think as this might replace the Tockify calendar that we currently have. Do not worry, it will also be linked through our linktree.
