Grab & Go Kids' Planner: Lego Land, Bottle Caps, and Game Night

Welcome to the Grab & Go Kids planner. We want to highlight events posted on our calendar and events around town focusing on kid-friendly activities and new places to try out with children.

Each week, we'll give you the info on the best family activities or events for the week.

You're time-pressed enough, so we're happy to do the research and find the best things to do and places to go, both local and not too far away.
