There are two types of people: those that think summer ends at Labour Day, and those that wring every ounce of fun out of summer right through until the day autumn arrives in late September. As Canadians, we cherish summer as a warm respite from the inevitabilities of winter, so anything designed to enhance our summer fun is definitely worth considering.
That’s especially true as July gives way to August and the dog days of summer. This is prime time for individuals who most likely spent May and June planting gardens, landscaping, and completing minor repairs outdoors. Now the work is done, it’s time to put 100 percent of the effort into enjoying the last eight weeks of the best season of the year.
There’s still plenty of time to get the most out of your summer, and Ramakko’s Source for Adventure can get you geared up not matter what your adventure. Here are a few ideas to consider when planning your summer fun.
FUN ON THE WATER
Summer isn’t complete if you haven’t found yourself in a pool or at the lake. Sure, there’s plenty of ways to enjoy the water, especially for those who love the high-octane thrill of boats and jet skis.
However, for those who like a more leisurely pursuit, there’s nothing better than a floating Aqua Lilly Pad, an exceptionally high-quality floating water raft. These floating playgrounds come in a variety of different sizes and are perfect play spaces whether you roll them out off the dock or just off shore.
SHADE ON THE BEACH
As much as summer is about soaking up as much sun as possible, it’s also about properly protecting yourself from the sun’s harmful rays. That’s where your Kuma Sun Shelter comes in.
Kuma offers a smaller shelter that’s perfect for protecting you or your infants whether you’re poolside or lying in the sand at the beach. Easy to set up and highly durable, the Kuma is a must have for people who love nothing more than spending the whole day under the sun.
SUMMERTIME TREASURE HUNTING
When you tire of beach volleyball or building sandcastles, how about investing some time in hunting for treasure! Minelab metal detectors provide treasure hunters and explorers with ample opportunity to seek out buried and lost treasures.
These high-quality detectors come in a variety of sizes, everything from a pin pointer to larger units you can use to scan larger areas. These are the perfect pieces of equipment for people who love the outdoors and prefer to be moving and active. Who knows, you might find gold!!
COOLERS AND COOKING
One of the things that makes the great outdoors so great every summer is enjoying meals outdoors. Cold drinks, hot food, and a cooler full of snacks to enjoy are simply part of a great summer day outside.
For camping lovers, there’s nothing better than camp food whether it’s cooked on a propane grill or an open fire. To ensure your food is kept at the proper temperature, start with a great cooler. Cooler technology continues to advance, whether it’s in a handheld mug or a large cooler designed for carrying all your food and drink for picnicking, camping, or hanging out at the beach. Ramakko’s has all the top names including Pelican, an outstanding cooler that is extremely durable and offers excellent ice retention.
When it comes to cooking, there’s no more versatile piece of equipment than the Pie Iron. Depending on the style and size you get, you can cook everything from toasted sandwiches to grilled burgers. The clam-shell design makes the Pie Iron easy to cook with and easy to clean.
NIGHTTIME PROTECTION FROM PESTS
When the sun starts setting and you ready yourself for the campfire, don’t let the bugs stop your fun. If you’re going to be outdoors, you’re going to encounter mosquitos. For the backyard and beyond, Thermacell® Mosquito Repellent is easy to use and provides hours of scent-free, mess-free, on-demand defense against mosquitoes. Create a bug-free zone using Thermacell® when enjoying outdoor spaces. It’s an excellent way to deter bugs from approaching.”
