Family Entertainment for Non-Campers

There is plenty going on around the area this summer to keep everyone occupied! We recommend checking into any program you might be interested in well in advance to ask about registration requirements and fees.

The Auburn-Opelika Tourism Bureau usually keeps a calendar of events, as well as information on local lodging, shopping, and dining on their web site: http://www.auburn-opelika.com/

The Auburn Parks & Recreation Department will post their summer schedule around May 5th: http://www.auburnalabama.org/parks

The Auburn Public Library has youth programming thru the summer. They will be building an addition this summer, so the schedule won’t be posted until late spring: http://www.auburnalabama.org/LIBRARY/

Swimmers may enjoy the water park that's just a couple of miles from campus: http://www.surfsidewaterpark.com/

Auburn Farmer’s Market is held on Thursday afternoons in July, August and September at the Ag Heritage Park on campus.
