Honestly I have never heard of Maine's WinterKids Program for children. But I am going to check it out! Free programs that provide great experiences for my children are always something I am interested in! Since they are free you should check it out and sign up if you want as soon as possible. Free programs fill up fast!
WinterKids helps children develop healthy lifelong habits through fun, outdoor winter activity.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the link up! I just wanted you to know that applied for 10 yr. olds pass on Wednesday and they called me today to let me know that he was accepted and I should receive his pass in mid November. Fast huh?

Wow! I wish New Hampshire had something like this! Sounds like a wonderful program. Sue
ReplyDeleteWow Teresa, that was fast! I am glad. It is a great way for kids to get out of the house in the winter, especially in MAINE! LOL! It seems my kids are stuck inside way too much during winter!...
ReplyDeleteSue if you check with your local Chamber you may be able to find a deal that is like a one day event for kids. A couple years ago the local Chamber had free ski passes, lessons, rentals, and tickets for one day only and I signed my kids up! These kids of things fill up quickly so check often. Good luck.
Thanks
