Just One Thing...

Act As A Tourist For Some Family Fun!

Looking for something local, (possibly) inexpensive, or unique to do this summer?

Request travel, tourism, or visitor's guides to your own and neighboring states -- act as a tourist in your own area!

(And many guides include coupons for attractions, restaurants, and hotels!)

There are many online travel and tourism resources. Here are just a few links:

Rhode Island

New York

Don’t forget about cities, too -- many larger or popular cities have their own guides!

You can find information online, request information through your local tourism office, or stop at any local rest area or travel center to find a multitude of pamphlets, magazines, and brochures!

Have fun!
