We all spent the weekend catering to every need of the women we love the most, but Mother’s Day has passed and now we look forward to the next holiday down the list (by the way, Happy Belated Mother’s Day to the best mommy in the world!)
While we all cherish the day dedicated to the people that brought us into the world, the next major holiday for the year excites me a little more, Memorial Day! I say this for a few reasons
- A three day weekend, and oh how I crave that extra day off to get a few extra things done around the house
- Memorial Day Weekend has always been about catching up with friends and family, sipping on a few cocktails and hanging out on the lake
- It’s the official kick off of SUMMER!
After a mild winter, spring in February and nothing but clouds and rain since, Memorial Day will be a welcome surprise to us all (and hopefully the weather will follow suit). The anticipation of putting away our winter clothing for a few months, busting out our golf polos, shorts and sandals and having some fun in the sun makes us want to scream.
The first thing on the agenda will be to greatly improve my golf game. After sneaking out a couple times already this spring, the only thing I will say is I NEED WORK! Golf outings and events are a great to get people to show up for corporate events. Along with some golf, expand your brand with custom printed golf balls, towels and gloves.
My newest endeavor for the summer will be sand volleyball. I’ve never played in a competitively before and I think I went a little over my head when agreeing to join two teams. While I may seem like I may know what I’m doing by my appearance and saying a couple flattering things about myself on the court, I probably look like a chicken with my head cut off out there.
My goal for the season is to at least look the part. A promotional hat or visor, t-shirt or tank top and a cool pair of sunglasses should intimidate the opponent until my first opportunity to actually try and hit the ball.
There are other activities to look forward to if you aren’t into sports though. Camping as always been big before where I am from. Taking the weekend to get back in touch with nature, pull out the folding chairs and sit next to the first. Help out the outdoorsman in your life with imprinted coolers and personal fans (because there is no A/C in the wilderness).
Last but not least, summer has always been a time to travel. You’ve saved your vacation days, the kids are out of school and the weather is nice enough you don’t mind getting out from under the covers in the morning. Custom baggage tags and luggage wraps protect you from losing your valuables when trying to see a million things in only a few days.
