So much to do on spring break! When I was a kid in the 80’s and 90’s, spring break was always full of adventure and great memories. We didn’t have Internet and big screen TVs and Xbox. We had the warm weather and our imaginations to guide us through one week of fun and freedom. Our week of rebellion seemed to last a month as we always had something to do. The world was awesome and we were free! Oh, the times have changed! This year our kids have two weeks off and for some of us we will be taking those two sweet weeks off as well. For others there will be daycare and family to help with the spring break. Whatever the case may be, I think we all need some adventure. For those who won’t be leaving on a plane or a boat to exotic destinations, here are a few suggestions for local Kamloops fun! So first off, if you’re into science and experimenting The Little Big Science Centre will be having weeklong activities to get your child’s Einstein brain busy. There promises to be explosions and hands on science for the kids during the break. Sign up for the day or the whole week for Experiments in Chemistry, Fluids/Matter, Forces and Motion, Sounds and waves! If you’re a sporty family and love exercise and competition thenREALTOR McArthur Island Park is full
of activities for the whole family. Located on the north bank of the Thompson River, McArthur Island Park is a must see for the spring breaker. Soccer, baseball, tennis, cricket and even a skate park, the weather is warming up and the park should be full of people and activities.
Have you ever flown a plane? Do you think your child is too young to fly a plane? Well look no further than the Discovery Flight School at Tylair Aviation. For $99 your 14 year old can train to be a pilot! Tylair offers many programs and training sessions for all ages and is very fun and afford-
able! Imagine your teenager taking the controls of a Cessna Sky hawk, or maybe a Boeing 747, you never know! There is plenty of nature in this Thursday, May 19 treagreat city and some amazing sures hidden all around us and the “Hoodoos” as locals call them, - continued on page 2
