Summer Activities in Lumberton

With warm, sunny days ahead of us, it’s finally time to enjoy the summer. Wesley Pines and the larger Lumberton, NC area offer countless opportunities to enjoy the fresh air, or cool off inside when the sun gets too hot. Here are a few ways to make the most of your summer here in North Carolina — and stay safe while you’re doing it!

Avoid the Heat By Starting Early

As the day goes on, temperatures tend to increase. Make the most of your outdoor time by planning activities in the morning, before the day’s heat, or in the evening, when it cools down a bit. Wesley Pines just north of Lumberton, NC, offers easy access to golfing, fishing, and walking trails. If you do venture out in the afternoon, choose shaded areas and paths, and don’t forget to bring your hat, water bottle, sunscreen, and bug spray.

Spend the Day With Friends

Some of summer’s best memories come from long days spent with loved ones and friends. At Wesley Pines, the opportunities are endless. Enjoy the nice weather out on your own personal patio or sunroom or one of our many green spaces. Go for a stroll, relax in the gazebo, or plan a picnic. For additional fun, explore the greater Lumberton area, with golfing, shopping, theaters, and dining. Check out one of Lumberton’s local vineyards, located less than half an hour away!
