Summer Outdoor Spots in Bentonville, AR
As summer quickly approaches, many of us are ready to go outside--especially after spending most of the late winter and spring inside due to COVID-19.
While most of Arkansas’s businesses and indoor activities are still closed, public parks and outdoor spots are available for individuals who follow Arkansas’s COVID-19 guidelines. Plus, getting outside does more than alleviate boredom; research shows that outdoor activities can boost your vitamin D levels, increase your concentration and may even help you heal faster.
Plus, there’s always the added bonuses of fresh air and exercise, both of which may help you maintain mobility, balance and muscle tone.
