Cool off this summer

With temperatures soaring in the summer heat, you're probably thinking of more ways to cool off. Here are a couple of our favorite ways to beat the summer heat while still having a great time outside:

Coolidge Park

With an interactive play fountain, air-conditioned carousel, and plenty of shady spots, Coolidge Park is one of your best bets for cooling off on a hot day. Pack a cooler and have a picnic while the kids play in the fountain or throw a football or frisbee in the park in the early evening. Read more


The Passage

Chronicling the Trail of Tears, the Passage is a great place to cool off on a hot day. A large, covered underpass offers a cool place to sit and the water flowing down the steps let you get your feet wet without needing a bathing suit. Walk along the restored waterfront and feel the cool breeze blowing in from the Tennessee River. Read more
