Memorial Day Weekend marks the unofficial start to summer — a time to gather with friends and family, enjoy the outdoors, and most importantly, honor the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom.
At Big Daddy Life, we believe one of the best ways to show gratitude is by living fully and appreciating the freedoms we often take for granted. Here are our top activities for making the most of Memorial Day Weekend, the Big Daddy way.

1. Go Fishing
Start the weekend with a peaceful morning on the water. Whether you’re on a boat, dock, or shoreline, fishing is a great way to slow down and reflect. Just make sure your gear is ready to roll and organized — our rod racks have you covered.

2. Backyard BBQs and Smoker Sundays
Memorial Day and grilling go hand in hand. Fire up the smoker or grill, invite the neighbors, and enjoy some good food and even better company. Cold drinks stay colder in our tumblers and koozies, built for long afternoons in the sun.

3. Fly the Flag
Take a moment to honor what the weekend is really about. Hang a flag on your home, your truck, or your dock. Decorate with red, white, and blue, and fly it proud.

4. Get Outside and Explore
Whether you're hiking a local trail, heading to camp, or just pitching a tent in the backyard, getting outside is what this season is all about. No screens. No stress. Just you and the wild.

5. Play Some Cornhole
Every cookout needs a little friendly competition, and cornhole is a Memorial Day classic. Our Big Daddy Life cornhole boards are sturdy, weather-resistant, and designed to stand out. Available for local pickup in Absecon, NJ, just in time for the long weekend.

6. Take a Moment of Silence
At 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day, take one minute to pause and remember the heroes who made it all possible. It's a small gesture that means a lot.

7. Hit the Water
Boat days and sandbar hangouts are a Memorial Day staple. Whether you’re cruising the lake or floating near shore, enjoy the ride, respect the water, and make some memories.
Whatever you're doing this Memorial Day Weekend, take a moment to remember why we get to enjoy it in the first place. We owe it all to the brave men and women who served and sacrificed.
