A local favorite for barbecue pork spareribs and sausages, residents of Concord have been frequenting Arnie's since 1960. If you're still in town and on the hunt for summer eats like barbecue plates and home-made ice cream and yogurt, try Arnie's Place on 164 Loudon Road.

Take advantage of the warm weather to cool off at the pool or the beach. Portsmouth has got two great venues for summer fun - Water Country and Hampton Beach.

Water Country is just what it sounds like; it's a huge amusement park with rides and slides some of which are called the Black Hole and Warp 8, Ollie Octopus, and Whirlpool. Tickets are $36 for a full day pass.

Looking for a cheaper way to hit the water? Portsmouth's Hampton Beach is the busiest beach in New Hampshire, and free and open to the public. Hampton Beach also hosts several annual festivals and other events including the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival, Hampton Beach Master Sand Sculpting Competition, and fireworks on every Wednesday at 930 PM during the summer.

If you're in the area, Portsmouth offers some great ways to spend a relaxing summer afternoon.

Pierce Law's Hillel will host a bagel brunch on Sunday May 3 beginning at 11am in the Jury Box. In addition to plenty of bagels, cream cheese, and lox, there will be coffee and juice to help cure the finals blues.

This culminates an exciting year for Hillel. With increased members and dedicated leadership, Hillel hosted several events including a bagel brunch in the fall and a very successful Passover Seder. Much kudos goes to President David Hardoon. Hillel is always looking for interest from students and faculty of any faith. For more information, contact hillel@piercelaw.edu.
