Posted on 13 Mar 2025
Winter had its moment, but now it’s time to shake off the chill and enter sunnier days. With the spring equinox arriving on March 20, we officially welcome more daylight, blooming flowers, and fresh outdoor adventures.
Looking for the perfect way to enjoy spring at Reunion? With scenic trails, open green spaces, and longer, sunnier days, the season is calling you outside! Here are six fun ways to celebrate the warmer weather and make the most of this beautiful time of year.
1. Take a Scenic Walk or Hike
The trails at Reunion are calling! With miles of scenic paths winding through the community, a springtime stroll is a relaxing way to soak up sunshine and shake off those winter blues. Spot the season’s first blooms, listen to the birds singing their springtime songs, and take in the fresh air.
Extra fun in the sun: Make your walk more fun by bringing a nature scavenger hunt for the kids — see who can find a budding flower, a squirrel, or a cool-looking rock first.
2. Ride Into Spring
Nothing says springtime freedom like hopping on your bike and feeling the breeze as you ride through Reunion’s bike-friendly paths. Cycling is a superb way to get active and explore the community.
Extra fun in the sun: Turn it into a family adventure by biking to a favorite local spot — maybe even a treat at Reunion Coffee House for a well-earned snack! ☕️
3. Have a Picnic in the Park
Ditch the dining room table and take your meal outdoors. Pack a basket with fresh fruit, sandwiches, and a cozy blanket, then head to one of Reunion’s green spaces for a spring picnic.
Extra fun in the sun: Bring a frisbee, hulahoop, soccer ball, or kite. Spring breezes make for the best kite-flying weather!
4. Explore the Farmers Market
Visiting a farmers market means indulging in the fresh, local produce that’s in season. Enjoy goodies like fresh strawberries, honey, and homemade bread, while also supporting local vendors.
Extra fun in the sun: Keep an eye out for pop-up events and seasonal markets.
5. Try Outdoor Yoga or Meditation
Breathe in the fresh spring air and start your day with outdoor yoga or meditation. Find a peaceful spot in Reunion’s parks, roll out a yoga mat, and let nature set the scene for a relaxing session. The mix of sunshine, fresh air, and movement is the ultimate way to welcome the season.
Extra fun in the sun: Want to take your practice to the next level? Join our yoga classes at the Reunion Rec Center. This gentle yet challenging practice helps build strength, improve balance, and boost overall wellness. Spring is all about renewal — so why not take time to refresh your mind and body with yoga?
6. Start a Spring Gardening Project
Even if you don’t have a green thumb, planting something this season is a wonderful way to embrace new beginnings. It can be a pot of fresh herbs on your kitchen windowsill or a flower bed in your yard. Either way, gardening is a rewarding way to bring spring home.
Extra fun in the sun: Get the whole family involved. Let the kids pick out their favorite flowers or veggies to plant, and make a day of digging in the dirt together. Bonus points for decorating your pots or garden signs for an extra touch of personality.
