Go-karts, bumper boats and laser tag — in this week’s cover story, we look at these three ways to grab friends or family for an outing that puts a little adventure in your day.
Also on the cover: Henry Homeyer looks at easy veggies for lazy gardeners (page 19). Katelyn Sahagian finds out about the Hillsboro Summer Festival (page 18). Find live music all weekend long in our Music This Week listing, which starts on page 38.
ICE CREAM!
And stay tuned to next week’s issue for our annual Great New Hampshire Ice Cream Tour map, which you will be able to find in the center of the issue and use to make your plans for finding new summer cones. In the meantime, we put Matt Ingersoll’s story “From the Cows to Your Cone,” which first ran last summer, on the website, free for all to read thanks to sponsors The Big 1, Blake’s Creamery, Granite State Candy Shoppe, Hayward’s Ice Cream and Lickee’s & Chewy’s.
