LIKE US

from the director Dear Participant, Summer in the city heats up with Aurora Parks, Recreation & Open Space (PROS)! Looking for ways to keep your kids entertained as the temperatures rise? Check out the Camps & Kids section on pages 21-24 for creative ways to keep youngsters engaged during summer vacation. From cooking, to science; arts and crafts to nature exploration, you’re sure to find an activity for even the pickiest camper. Have a young Master Chef in the house? Try our new Baking Boot Camp. Have an athlete in training? Try a Healthy Kids Fitness & Fun Camp, like Run Fun, which teaches running principles and techniques. Several outdoor pools open Memorial Day weekend, marking the official start of summer. Unfortunately, Del Mar Park’s Pool will remain closed for renovation construction; however we plan to have a “sneak peek” of the water playground open in early July. To prevent the pool closure from dampening our spirits, Aurora PROS will host free activities in Del Mar Park every Wednesday from May 28-July 30, see page 13 for more. Join us for one Wednesday or all ten of them – we’ll bring the fun and hopefully the sun! In good health,

Tom Barrett, Director Parks, Recreation & Open Space (PROS) The Quality of Life Department
