If you enjoy soccer, a fun filled fan environment, local food, or just an overall good time, head over to the Flamingoes game and you won't be disappointed! Catch a game at Breese Stevens Fields, just down the street from the Capitol, and after the game be sure to stop at the Palette Bar and Grill for a drink and to meet the players! Henry Vilas Zoo Check out Madison's awesome and FREE ADMISSION zoo! Henry Vilas Zoo boasts over 650 animals.

Be sure to donate if you can, to keep the efforts of the zoo going! Mad City Ski Team The Mad-City Ski Team is made up of a group of volunteers of all ages that perform free water ski shows on Lake Monona for the Madison community. They offer free ski shows most Sunday nights throughout the summer, where attendees can view from the Monona Terrace or the surrounding path.

Be sure to stop by Stella's booth for the fresh cheese bread! Concerts on the Square Starting Wednesdays in the summer at 7pm, Madison will begin it's time honored tradition of Concerts on the Square. In the past, it occurred on the Capitol square and attendees would come picnic, purchasing food and drinks from local businesses or bringing their own, while enjoying music performed by the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra. This year, the event will occur at Breese Stevens Field also home to the Madison Flamingoes! It is a great way to support local businesses and explore Madison! Due to restrictions, if you don't make it in the field, finding a restaurant nearby with an outdoor patio will assure you can still hear the music and enjoy the fun!
