Keep Your Cool
Aqua Excursions
Chilling out in the summertime usually equates to some kind of water fun for kids. That may mean bustin' out the sprinkler, backyard kiddie pools or even the dreaded grass killing slip n' slide. What do you like to do when the temperatures start to rise? Rent a kayak? Go for a sail? Maybe your family likes to hit the beach or local town pool.

Very appropriate...more"
Granby Zoo
"The combination zoo and waterpark made this a wonderful experience for my son and the friends we brought with us. Granby offers camel and pony rides along with a monorail and a mini-amusement park.
