August in Placer County ☀️📚🍉
We’re officially in the second half of summer, but there’s still plenty of time to enjoy it!
Whether you’re looking for a local event, trying to squeeze in one more summer adventure, getting the kids ready to head back to school, or just looking for somewhere to escape the August heat, I’ve got you covered.
🎟️ AUGUST EVENTS
From local community events and the Nevada County Fair to Tahoe happenings and more, there’s still a lot going on this month. Swipe through for a few events to add to your calendar!
📚 BEAT THE HEAT AT THE LIBRARY
Your librarian doesn’t care what you do—as long as you’re there! 😂 Read a book, bring the kids, get some work done, scroll on your phone, or simply enjoy a cool, climate-controlled space with free Wi-Fi.
🍉 FINISH THAT SUMMER BUCKET LIST
Lake days, picnics, swimming holes, farmers markets, ice cream runs… summer isn’t over yet. There’s still time to squeeze in a few more summer adventures!
🎒 PLAN AHEAD FOR SCHOOL SPIRIT DAYS
Because somehow your kid will remember at dinner the night before that tomorrow is Crazy Hair Day. Save yourself the emergency Target run and grab a few things now!
And if all this exploring has you thinking about making a move, I’m always happy to help you find home in Placer or Nevada County. 🏡
