It’s going to be hot this weekend! The National Weather Service is predicting temperatures over 100 degrees. My favorite way to beat the heat? Stay inside a nice air-conditioned building. Here’s how you can make the most of the weekend despite the heat:

You can check out a play from the Maricopa Community Theater. The theater is performing “Gypsy” this week. The last days to see the musical based on the life of Gypsy Rose Lee are Friday and Saturday.

You might also want to “cook” up something cool and refreshing like these pickled julienned carrots from PinalCentral’s Arts & Entertainment Editor Melissa St. Aude.

You can even exercise indoors! A new walking group is starting up this Tuesday at the Casa Grande Community Recreation Center.

Still prefer to be outside? A lot of local cities are starting to open their pools and splash pads. Check out the story below about a new event Casa Grande is having at its splash pad starting next week.

Enjoy your weekend and remember to stay cool. 😎
