Hello Families!

It’s almost spring and summer isn’t far behind! Time to be planning the kids’ summers with our HUGE Summer Guide that starts on page 18. Whatever your children are into – martial arts, drama, dance, science, robotics, sports, gymnastics and more – you’ll find it in our guide. Register your children early.

Many of these day camps, clinics and classes fill up very fast and you don’t want your child to be left out. And remember to tell them you found them in Kids Directory when you get the kids signed up!
