6 Days of Summer: Time for Free Outdoor Yoga

When is the last day of summer? Not until you do the upward facing dog at the water park.

By Greg Hambrick

It may still be summer, but it’s still the beginning of a new week. Today, Monday, Sept. 16, you can start the week off with some quiet meditation in an outdoor yoga class at the water park in Crystal City.

The last day of summer is Saturday, Sept. 21. Or, you can look at it this way: The first day of fall is Sept. 22. Patch has found something for you to do each day as we count down until summer passes us by.
