Fun Things to Do with Dad in the Treasure Valley

There isn’t anything much better than summer in the Treasure Valley. One of the reasons that so many people are choosing to move to the area is the plethora of outdoor activities available regardless of the season, but summertime is when the Treasure Valley shows its true colors.

 


Whether it’s Father’s Day or you just want to spend time with dad and do something special, here are a few fun ideas in the Treasure Valley.

Check Out an Outdoor Concert

Venues like the Ford Idaho Center, Expo Idaho, and Outlaw Field at the Idaho Botanical Garden never disappoint with their summer concert lineups. With the sun shining and a grassy area to sit on, it doesn't get much better than this for any music lover. Local promoters always rock it with the national acts they attract to the Treasure Valley area, and chances are one of your dad's favorite artists is making a stop this summer. Check out local concert listings and make sure to get your tickets in advance for an evening that dad won't soon forget.

Try Some New Flavors

The Treasure Valley is home to a wide variety of restaurants serving up everything from traditional Basque food to exotic Asian fusion flavors. The best part is that these restaurants aren’t just limited to downtown Boise—if you live in the Eagle area or Meridian, for instance, you don’t have to go far to find some of the premier Treasure Valley restaurants.

For example, if you’re both in the mood for the best sushi in Eagle Idaho and surrounding areas, Ling & Louie’s Asian Bar and Grill in Meridian has exotic flavors and a full menu of handmade sushi rolls. If dad isn’t much of a sushi guy, then he can still chow down on the other Asian fusion dishes on their menu while sipping on a signature cocktail.

Make a Splash

With the sun shining practically every day, chances are your dad is ready to take a dip in a pool somewhere. For being landlocked, the state of Idaho has plenty of watering holes where you can cool off from the summer heat, whether your neighborhood has a pool or you want to get out in the open water at Lucky Peak State Park.

If dad is more of a thrills guy and isn't afraid to face the Avalanche, Roaring Springs Water Park is the perfect all-day activity that you can bring any little ones along for as well. Finally, depending on when the to-be-determined start of floating season is, you can inflate your inner tubes and spend the afternoon floating the Boise River; a Treasure Valley summer pastime.

Hit Up Happy Hour

Who doesn’t like discounted drinks and food specials? After a long day exploring the Treasure Valley with dad, there isn't a better way to cap off the evening than at a happy hour in Meridian. Look for one with an extensive menu of some of your dad’s standby cocktails along with new fusion dishes that will excite and impress.
