When the warmer weather comes to Hartford, it is definitely time to take the plunge and keep cool by planning a day of fun when you experience Farmington River Tubing. Your wet and wild adventure begins at the State Recreation area and winds down the Farmington River. You can rent your tube and get ready for a great day outdoors in the sun. But you may want to bring a big hat, sunglasses and plenty of sun block!

A game of hoops is always exciting, especially if the team hitting the court is The Connecticut Huskies. Both the men's and women's sports teams of the University of Connecticut are known for some great defense, offense and sharply focused three-pointers. The teams play their home games at the XL Center located downtown. Other games are played at Gampel Pavilion which is located on the university's campus.

It isn't uncommon to hear about garden shows. They seem to happen in nearly every city in the country. However, the one Connecticut Flower & Garden Show has built up a solid reputation as one of the most prestigious shows of its kind. Visitors are treated to the visual allure of several breathtaking gardens that are designed by some of Connecticut's most respected horticulturalists. The gardens are presented over 3 acres and include not only floral presentations but several exhibits that educate visitors about new gardening products and services. This popular festival is usually held every February.
