IMG_8361ahh spring in Vermont – bright sunshine, rain and snow are all in the forecast for this weekend! So rather than promising ourselves a weekend full of events and activities, we’re simply hoping a little yard work gets done and the kids don’t go stir crazy.*

Hopefully you’ll be doing dancing Friday night and a little lambing Saturday morning at Shelburne Farms (or taking a trip to the farmer’s market instead).

We’re planning ahead for next week, are you? Here’s our check list:

– Sign up for Preschool Screenings – they’ll be happening Monday – Thursday.

– Reserve tickets for the Junebug Community2Community benefit dinner and auction. Check out some of the amazing auction items they have here.

– Hire a babysitter take kids to Pajama Storytime with Middlebury College’s Page One Literacy at Ilsley on Tuesday night, while we enjoy delicious Community2Community dinner.**

– Start training and sign up for Otter Creek Mud Run!

– Sign up for summer camps, seriously do it today! Town of Middlebury and Bristol have both begun listing their offerings for summer camps. Here’s a preview of the Town of Middlebury day camps:

June 17th-21st- Camp Kookamunga- Bromley Adventure Park
… June 24th-28th- Camp Kookamunga- Montshire Museum
July 1st-5th- Camp Kookamunga Parade and Petra Cliffs rock climbing
July 8th-12th- Camp Kookamunga- Jay Peak Pump House
July 15th-19th- Sportacular- Bowling, Pizza Putt and Lake Monsters Game
July 22nd-26th- Camp Kookamunga- Fun Spot in Lake George

August 5th-9th- Camp Kookamunga- Addison County Fair and Field Days

What’s on your agenda? Email us suggestions!

 
*This is cloud sand, if you haven’t made it yet, it’s cheap, easy, and awesome for stir crazy preschoolers! 
**Ha, that would be a seriously ideal night out but not actually reality for our family. Maybe you can make it happen though!

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
