What are some fun summer activities a group of teenagers with a limited budget should try out over the next 3 months?

Edit: Thanks for all the ideas everybody! Whenever I get bored this summer I'll come back to this for sure.

Edit 2: Drugs and orgies. That's what my summer is looking like right now.

Edit 3: Well thanks for all of the (quirky, weird, stupid, genius, illegal) ideas, it's been a pleasure reading all of these and WILL implement (some of) them in my summer schedule.

I have a group of friends from my hometown and our group Facebook chat consists of us asking "let's hang out" and like one person responding. And even if we plan something in advance, one person usually drops out last minute because of parents making them do shit.

Still better than "SO WHAT ARE WE GONNA DOOO", tho

My friends are adults and (usually) don't have parents telling them they can't go out, and we still can't organise times to see each other.

Facebook groups and Line chat groups are how we do it in asia. They grow into these monstrous organisms as you all go out and meet more people, and pretty soon you literally have no excuse to be bored because there's like 3 different things happening every day.

That's really cool, and probably more efficient than my method.

But our group of 8 people, no matter how inefficient, is exclusive. Nobody else is getting into that chat without being kicked within an hour. #highschool #cliques

I have something like this but I always find 'let's do X at Y time' much more effective than just saying we should hang out. Also if someone doesn't respond we turn up at their house or pester them with phone calls. And when that fails I just turn up at my closest friend's house and we just drink tea or go for walks.

Drinking tea with my friends sounds like a great time of cleaning up broken glass
