CNF REU THINGS TO DO!

Ithaca is a great place to be in the summer. In June, you have your weekends free. Go outside. Go for a hike. Go for ice cream at the Cornell Dairy Bar. Really. Life is calling and Ithaca is Gorges! The following is a list of optional and fun things to do over the summer while you are in Ithaca.
 

But first!

DO NOT swim in the gorges marked NO SWIMMING. Swim in one of the many many state parks where swimming is legal. TCAT and or your friends with cars will take you to those. And those parks are all just as fun.

Peers will pressure you, but --

DO NOT SWIM IN "NO SWIMMING" ZONES.
