A Quintessential Summer Bucket List for Teens
Summer’s is HERE. This summer aims to be a memorable one for various reasons. While COVID-19 has affected just about every aspect of our lives, there’s nothing quite like basking in summer’s golden radiance at Woodloch Resort with the family by your side and new friends in our contact list. The Pocono Mountains, mainly Woodloch’s 1,500-acre lakeside haven, are an idyllic place to try new things, conquer fears, make new friends, and see another wilder side of Mom and Dad. A fun, very 2021-esque activity for many teens and adolescents is crafting a summertime bucket list, complete with a bevy of attainable yet undeniably outrageous activities. Thus, we decided to craft our own summer bucket list for teens. Each of these items can be achieved right here in Hawley, PA, under two hours from the heart of Manhattan.
Summer Bucket List for Teens: 35 Items in 35 Days
This comprehensive summer bucket list for teens could stretch for days. But, for your own sake, we’ve whittled it down to 35 items. It’s worth noting that despite recent events, Woodloch will be operational starting June 19, 2020, with the majority of our regular programming back in full force! That being said, we highly recommend that all prospective guests scan through our most recent special statement, which includes information about the resort’s top-of-the-line Wellness Standard, our AHLA Safe Stay award, the refashioned dining experience, fully-functional activities, and our safety promise to each and every guest who visits this little slice of Pennsylvanian heaven.
