A summer in Muncie can appear to be anything but fun. It’s the town we love to hate all year, and adding in those three summer months makes it even more apparent that “Funcie” lacks summer options. With work, classes and whatever else keeps students in town, it is important to scope out inexpensive ways to make summer enjoyable.
