Did you know you have a local parks and rec department?  Some of them go by other names, like community ed, or continuing education.  The beauty of these places is that they offer quality programs for great prices...for all ages.

What I didn't realize until after I had lived in Grand Rapids for four years is that you can take classes from a neighboring community Parks and Rec Department, usually for an extra $10 or so.

Where do you find the names and locations of the communities surrounding you?  At grkids.com, of course!  Visit the Classes page a scroll down for a comprehensive list of community programs ready to serve you!  Many of these are enrolling right now for the fall, so don't delay!

Also, if you've participated in a program at a Parks and Rec department, would you leave a comment telling others what your program was, where it was through, and how you liked it?  You'd really be helping other parents out!

Thanks!

We have done Kindermusik for 3 years with Janet through the East Grand Rapids Parks and Rec Department. I'll put it simply...she's amazing!
