Summer is almost here, can you feel it?! I’ve just written about it over at The Mother Huddle and I can’t wait to get out and play! So I’m going to go ahead and start celebrating it’s sunshine with you fabulous readers in today’s giveaway, sharing 6 fabulous Utah summer destinations. If you live nearby or are planning to visit (I’ve got room in my basement) then this is the giveaway for you!
First up is Thanksgiving Point located in Lehi, Utah. We love this place for so many reasons. The farm is our favorite, my kids love to feed the animals and love to ride the horses. We’ve also like visiting our ancient friends, the dinosaurs, at their Museum of Ancient Life. And they have beautiful gardens, I mean it’s huge, goes on forever. You can even rent a segway scooter and cruise all around, or head over to their amazing Children’s Discovery Gardens perfect for little ones.
Thanksgiving Point is offering family of 4 day passes to each of their 4 destinations: Farm, Museum, Garden, and Children’s Discovery Garden.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Boondocks is next on our bucket list. It’s one of those fun family places where even the parents get to act like kids. The go-carts are the best, although I’m super wimpy! I don’t know why I can’t put the pedal to the medal! But I am great at mini golf, who doesn’t love that fire breathing volcano, and the bumper boats, soaking everyone else’s ships!
Boodocks is offering family of 4 unlimited day passes for all attractions: good only at their Draper location.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
When you think of Park City Mountain Resort, you may only think of snow and skiing. But they have amazing summer attractions. You can ride the Ziprider, flying above the tree tops at close to 45 miles an hour. They have their Alpine Coaster, the thrill of the ride but up in the majestic mountains. And they have their classic Alpine Slide, the same one I used to ride and love growing up as a kid. There’s lots of summer fun to be had up in the Park City mountains!
PCMR is offering family of 4 day “Park Passes” to the Ziprider, Alpine Coaster, and Alpine Slide.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Rocky Mountain Outfitters are known for their outdoor recreational activities in the Heber Valley, like fly fishing and horseback riding. They also have a true cowboy evening with a family chuck wagon dinner. It comes complete with a horse wagon ride, story telling, western buffet dinner, and cowboy games. One winner will get to experience this fun evening discovering the Old Wild West.
Rocky Mountain Outfitters are offering family of 4 passes to a horse wagon ride up to a chuck wagon dinner.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Cowabunga Bay Water Park is about to open their doors in Draper to this summer season and we couldn’t be more ready to start getting wet. It gets pretty hot during the summer here in Utah and Cowabunga Bay is just the way to cool things off. There are the Mondo and Hang Ten slides to cruise down, giant Cowabunga Splash bucket to get soaked under, and surf the Cowabunga Lazy River. Wipe out!
Cowabunga Bay is offering family of 4 day passes to their splashtastic water park.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
We’re rounding out this Summer Bucket List with the Tracy Aviary, located near downtown Salt Lake City. There are almost 400 birds housed here, many of them endangered. There are peacocks just roaming around, often showing off their feathers! There’s live bird shows and a fun scavenger hunt for the kids you can download. They also have Avian Adventure Camps for your little nature explorers available all summer.
Tracy Aviary is offering family of 4 day passes to their amazing bird sanctuary.

Wow! What a wonderful giveaway! They all would be so much fun! We actually have zero plans for the summer….unless you call putting a yard in summer fun :) Thanks for the chance!
WOW. Thanks for the resources. We are actually visiting Utah for the summer all the way from Tennessee. I would love to play at one of these places!! Our biggest summer plans are swimming in the pool…we do that every day and love it!
I have your button on my blog
Well, well, well…. we didn’t have many plans for this summer–we’re in Kaysville–but NOW we do! My youngest just turned two and that means more of an adventurous summer this year. You gave me lots of ideas for getting out and about and showing my two boys how great Utah summers can be. Thanks for the chance to win any of these great giveaways!
I am a fan on facebook! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!
Hum, it is a shame I live no where near Utah. I guess I need to do some research and find similar areas nearby. Summer is becoming more fun already!! Thanks!
We are going to Jackson Hole for some white water rafting. :)
Dude. Awesome giveaway. Big summer plans so far: the pool. Everyday.
Thinking about an Owls game? Wondering if the kids will like it. Kids are already begging for the zoo.
oh me oh my. what a great list of giveaways!
our summer plans include 2 weddings. and our 4th babe due towards the end of summer.

How fun! We could definitely use some help in the summer activity department, so this would be awesome. Thanks for the giveaway!

We’re starting our Summer off with a trip to Oregon… then it’s hopefully lots and lots of swimming and playing in the sun!!

We haven’t made any summer plans, but are talking about taking a trip. We will be celebrating a 25th wedding anniversary and a 50th birthday. Utah sounds like a great place to go!

Summer plans… with three kiddos we plan to write a long list of fun simple things we want to do together… lots of little things but those mean the most!
I haven’t decided yet if my summer plans include a vacay to Utah to visit family, so winning one of these would certainly seal the deal!
Visiting Utah from far-away Alaska this summer… Time to introduce my three kidlets to their grandparents and cousins! This bucket list sounds great. Will be adding it to our wish-list itinerary. Thanks.
We are starting our summer out by visiting grandparents on a mission in Canada!! The kids are excited! We would love to add one of your giveaway destinations since it gets so expensive paying for all 5 of us to go places! Thanks for the chance!!!
I follow you on facebook!
I also have your button on my blog! I hope that helps my chances! :)
My kids are most excited about swimming and gymnastics lessons. I’m excited about the garden. We love Thanksgiving Point, and I’d love to try out those other places!
We live right behind Thanksgiving Point and we have never been to the children’s gardens yet. I would love to go there. We are going to Disneyland in 3 weeks-woohoo!!! Other than that we don’t have any other plans. So winning one of these would be soo fun!!
My kids and I just made a list a few weeks ago of everything we wanted to do this summer. Some of the things on our list are the zoo, parks, swimming, splash parks, and wheeler farm. We’re also taking a trip to San Diego and Capital Reef National Park. Hopefully we’ll win this giveaway and add one of these places to our list!
I’m going camping this summer!
I so want to win this even though I know it’s not gonna happen. Sweet Giveaway Marie!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Pick me, pick me! We are planning on using our zoo pass this summer. We also took advantage of the children’s museum discount this month where you can purchase a 6-month pass for a family of 4 for only $50!! Good, air-conditioned times are sure to come!
I’m also a fan on facebook!
I would love to win any of these! We are going to San Diego for a wedding in early June. The rest of the summer will be spent playing sports, swimming, and lots of family bike rides.
Over the 4th of July I’m going bungee jumping and whitewater rafting on the Snake River. I’ve also taken up mountain biking and need to go ride in Moab (shameful I haven’t been there already).
Our summer so far includes our annual family vacation to Sunriver, Oregon with all of my family and a trip to Boise to visit my sister! Lots of these places are on our list of things to do, though: Tracy Aviary, Thanksgiving Point, Cowabunga Bay. We will also be hitting the zoo!

This summer I plan on finishing my last class at BYU! I also plan on going home to Colorado with my husband for a quick weekend, and then moving to Los Angeles in August! AH! I feel like it will be a crazy summer, and yet we have no real plans! I want to enjoy Utah while we have our last few months here.
P.S. I ‘liked’ you on fb!
So far our plans include, having a new baby brother, graduating school, and moving to UT…all in the month of June. My kids are so excited to be moving, but also very sad to be leaving their friends. Those destinations sounds like a lot of fun, and a great way to start our new life in UT.
Love these giveaways! This summer we are going to St. George for a few days and hitting some of the beautiful parks. My little girls love the red sand! Probably hit the Thanksgiving Point Gardens a time or two to let the girls run.
I’m just starting on the planning, but so far there’s a whole bunch of camping and staying at the cabin in store!
I have two marathons planned. I’m going with the Young Women to camp in August. Hubby is going out of town for a week in July, which just so happens to be during my birthday. We decided to fix that by leaving the kids with their grandparents for two days so that I can meet him in San Francisco for the last two days. Other than that I have big plans with the kids which involve park playing, picnics, the zoo, and running through the sprinklers.
What an awesome giveaway! My kids would LOVE to go to any of these places this summer. We haven’t made our summer list yet, but for sure we are going to visit grandma and grandpa for a week or so. Thanks for the chance to win!
I “like” you!
I follow on twitter too!
Oh wow, I’d love to win one of these giveaways. Super fun! We’re going to be doing lots of swimming and lots of camping!

I’m putting together a list of fun things we can do so we have something for everyday of the summer. Some are simple like making bubble solution and blowing bubbles and some are more involved – like a luau party. Your list of places to visit would be fun to add to our list!!
We are going to relax and enjoy our new baby brother who will arrive very soon!
Thanks so much for putting together this giveaway. I would love to win. Our big plans include some home improvements, a family members wedding (FINALLY my little brother is getting married to an awesome woman), and some family trips.
WE are planning on going camping this summer. Lots of outdoor adventures. We might be heading to Oregon in August, not sure yet, and Swimming in the pool.

This is great! We have a trip to Hawaii planned next month and (hopefully) a trip to Lake Powell in August. Other than that we are going to stay here in Utah. Any of these would be great but I know my daughter would love Thanksgiving Point, so much to do!
I like M&T on FB
I have a silly thing on my Utah bucket list..
I’ve never been to the copper mines and want to go!
Silly huh???
I’ve been threatening Chris with a road trip to Colorado. I’ve never been! So we’re going to head over to Colorado for some good ole fashioned thrift shopping!

We are going to try and hit some of our local natural wonders via the national parks and our tent.
I really want to go to Goblin Valley. My husband is from OR and has never been.
I plan on hitting the pool a lot- we got our kids swimming lessons
We just finished going to Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef NPs. Thanksgiving Point is visited at least once a month. My kids still want to go to the zoo, Boondocks, Park City (with our fun neighbors), and camping. Summer will be too short again – as always!

We have hopes for lots of fun stuff this summer. I have some older and some younger kids. My oldest kids will be consumed with Day of celebration practice/performance, Sons of Helaman camp, High adventure and trying to finish 10 more merit badges for scouts. My other teenager will be going to scout camp and working on merit badges. My younger kids will be spending time with Me (Mom) and their cousin who is coming over from London, England for the summer to stay with us. This giveaway would be PERFECT for us to go do some things with her and show her around the state Especially Park City where the olympics were, that would be so fun, and she would love it. My kids has deperately wanted to do the park city stuff, boondocks, and I am sure the new water park would be right up there too, as well as the other giveaways. Other things that are on our bucket list are swimming lessons, and a camping trip maybe for a weekend to Bear Lake. Thanks for the opportunity to be in the giveaway, and a big thanks to teh businesses who are donating them. Good luck to everyone!
So fun! We love all of those places. Great bucket list!

We just got an awesome new tent from Costco, so we are planning lots of camping this summer!
This will be the first summer for 2 years that I haven’t been pregnant and miserable. I’m ready to make it up to my big girls by having a lot of fun this summer. This would be perfect.
Have lived in Salt Lake all my life and havent been to a few of these places. I would love to take my kids and have some fun.
We live in St George so this summer we will be swimming a lot at my sister in laws house. We would love to come up north for a fun summer get a way. Thanks! :)
We live in Minnesota, and we are planning a summer trip in July to Utah, so one of these would be awesome for our family! Thanks for all your fun ideas. We love to go to the lake in the summer here and swim, also the zoo, and the park, and riding bikes, and camping…wow, do I really have enough time for all this?!!
We are spending most of July in a mountain cabin.
We live in Washington but are planning a trip to Utah this summer. Any one of those places would be loads of fun for our family. As a teacher, I get to have the best job in the world, second only to motherhood, and I still get to play with the family throughout the summer! I think we plan on riding bikes and swimming a lot again this year–it’s the simple pleasures in life that we cherish. Thanks for your great blog.
We are going to the Ogden treehouse museum it’s fantastic.
Well our plans definitely include coming up to Salt Lake a couple of times, so we would love to visit any of those places!
Our plans to start the summer are to get the yard alittle more put together.. Then we are looking for a fun place to go. We haven’t quite decided what that will be yet though!
I would love to win one of these fantastic prizes though!
I am a facebook fan!
We plan to do alot of camping this summer. We have not had much of a chance to see the sites in our area (recently moved here) and plan to do it this summer. Utah is an area that we love and we have never been to any of the places that you listed.

We plan on going to lots of Bees games!
Well, first of all we are coming to Utah for vacation! YAY! Can’t wait to see family there and visit some of these fun places.
We’re so excited for Bear Lake, hiking, fishing, lemonade days by the pool,
Lagoon, waterskiing at Hyrum Dam and whatever else sounds like fun!

We are going to the Hale Center Theater in SLC, then to the family museum at the Gateway and then to Timanogas Cave. . .cant wait!
We head to Bear Lake a couple of times during the summer but have never been to thanksgiving point and would love the tickets. My 2 year old son is in love with ‘Dinagors’ as he says it.
We are headed to Utah and Park city at the end of June and would love to do ALL of these things.
Follower on Twitter.
We’re going to do a lot of hiking this summer. We’d love to go to any one of these places too!
We love all the places you listed, but also hope to hit Mt. Timpanogos caves, Bridal Veil Falls, and the Zoo!
Those sound like so much fun!! We are planning on playing at the tree house museum and the gateway!
Seriously!? This would be so fantastic to win-I’m spending a small fortune to bring my 3 children to UT this summer to visit their grandparents/cousins. I’ve been stressing about how to pay for all the “fun stuff” that we want to do when we get there…this would MAKE MY DAY! I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
What a great giveaway.
This summer we hope to: Go to Shavy Jones shaved ice in S Jordan, hit the neighborhood pool, travel to Boston area to see family, go to summer camp at Montessori at Riverton and pony ride at Gardner Village.
Cheers
Cool stuff Marie, I would love to be entered into the giveaway for all those fun places! Love your blog btw.

I haven’t completed our official summer calendar yet, but our vacations include San Juan Islands, Baltimore, and Disneyland! Yay for summer, now if would just warm up.
We’re thinking about visiting Arches! My husband hasn’t been yet =)
We travel to utah every summer to see family and friends, this would be great to experience on our journey this summer.

Some of those are on our list as well! We definately also want to go to Lagoon, the Nature Center, the children’s museum, the zoo and going fishing in the Uintahs.
Great giveaways. We love all these places. We are going to Vegas, Zions, Park City, and Bear Lake this summer. We can’t wait.
I love your ideas, we will have to try them. We are looking forward to some hikes and dutch oven cooking!
First up on our bucket list is a wedding in SLC, Utah! So winning would add to our fun week. :~)
Perfect for the wife and kids
And I’m a fan
We have a few family reunions and fun things planned! Hopefully something fun for our anniversary in August!

Lots of family time and splash pad trips for my little ones
First off, a trip to the Outer Banks!
My summer bucket lists consists of time with family on the beach and that’s all so far.
Any of these would be great for the family!
I was thinking of getting a “city pass” and taking my kids to one place each week. It gives them something to look forward to and I can bribe them to get chores done!!
What a fun giveaway! So far we just have some camping trips planned.
Our summer bucket list includes some camping, a trip to Yellowstone, lots of time at Thanksgiving Points, and as much bike riding as possible. Thanks for a great giveaway!

We don’t have any plans for this summer so one of these would be GREAT!!
I am also a FB fan.
I can’t wait to do some summer hiking. I am also going to live at the downtown farmer’s market every Saturday morning:)
Great giveaway!! We’re planning on playing at the pool and we’ll probably go to Yellowstone.
this would make an awesome family trip.
We don’t have any set plans, just a small budget and no time for a real vacation. Maybe this will give us an excuse to do something we normally wouldn’t.
I’d love to win one of these. Sometimes you keep looking too far away instead of close by for something to do.
On our bucket list are: to walk the entire Utah county portion on the Jordan River trail (but probably in several portions since the kidlets are still pretty little) and to drive and explore the Nebo loop. :)
My bucket list is empty as of right now.

2 marathons, backpacking in Havasu, and the Wasatch Back relay.
Work, work and more work. I could use a diversion.

What a fantastic giveaway. We will be visiting Utah this summer from Maryland. Our dream bucket list would include all of those fun destinations. We are also hoping for some mountain time, we don’t have too many around here.
a few bike races and some family time…

My sister just told me about this great giveaway! Sounds like any of these would be a great start to my bucket list.
Wow! What a wonderful giveaway! We plan on using our Hogle Zoo pass as often as we can, plus visiting a newly remodeled local pool to test out the new splash pad and waterslide. We have some summer camps to look forward to and just got back from St. George, so we’ve kicked off summer early!

I am looking forward to REAL games in Salt Lake. So fun!
Our plan is to spend as much time outdoors as possible! These would be perfect destinations!

We are from Utah but we live in the Middle East right now (we work at the US Embassy). Our summer bucket list includes anything that will help our three small kids re-enter US culture. We will be in Utah for one fun-filled month. Our kids would love to win any of these great opportunities. Thanks!
