With spring officially in the air, it’s time to start piecing together your Memorial Day weekend plans. Memorial Day is typically a time for family and close friends to gather as we commemorate those lost in the line of duty. For most, Memorial Day also signifies the start of summer, even if it doesn’t officially begin until late June. Temperatures are commonly in the mid-80s here in Broken Bow, which is ideal for grilling burgers, sipping on refreshing mojitos, and seemingly neverending water activities on nearby Broken Bow Lake.
