We are still in the Summertime spirit over here at Fred Parent! That doesn’t mean we’re not a little worried about what the heck we’re going to do with the kiddos all summer. To put our minds (and yours!) to ease a little, we rounded up 10 fun things to do around Fredericksburg. The best part? Most of these are FREE! What are you looking forward to doing the most this summer?
