: Queens Tribune's 2005 Fun Guide

Grab the swimsuit and barbeque sauce.

It’s time for the Queens Tribune’s annual summer Fun Guide, and again this year we’ve sent our crack team of reporters scouring the borough to find the absolute best in summertime fun. We’ve broken Queens down into different activity categories—from time-tested Queens standards to uncommon entertainment you might not have thought up on your own—and brought them all together in one edition of the eminently entertaining.

Plus, we’ve included a handy summer event calendar to keep you current on what’s happening throughout the season, so hang onto this issue until the mercury drops. Whether you’re looking for kids’ activities or stuff to do on a weekend night out, you’ll find it here.

You’ll also notice we’ve rated each listing with the cute little icons below to help you pick out what activities suit you best.

Now, come along with us for a tour of summer’s hottest prospects across Queens. We can’t promise you won’t break a sweat, but we can promise you won’t be bored.
