Activies

Hi P.!

My daughter is alot younger, but I have already begun to research summer activites for her. This is what I have found...

Dance in Fayetteville, Gymsouth in fayetteville has some awesome classes. Girlscouts, an also check with the rec dept in your county to check with the t-ball for the summer. Deadlines are approaching quickly! Please let me know if you need any other help. I will be glad to assist you with finding things to do! I seem to have that problem alot!

Gosh, I have to say join or start a MOMS Club. There is no chapter in the College Park area yet, (I belonged to a Philadelphia-area MOMS CLUB and just moved to unincorporated South Fulton County, where my mailing address is College Park, so I've checked for a chapter here). But you'll get to join a playgroup, go on outings with other moms and their kids, attend Moms Night Out (w/o the kids) and HOOT and HOWLS (Husband Out Of Town, Husbands Out Working Late), and take advantage of opportunities to help others (name a service project you'd like to tackle). I've asked about starting a chapter, and await MOMS Clubs' response!

p.s. A fellow MOMS Club Lansdale member raved about the Fayetteville chapter, since you said you aren't far from there.
p.p.s. And if you sign up for a Gymboree class, your daughter will see the same children weekly and make pre-school friends!

There is a new "Little Gym" that just opened on Hwy 92 near the new Publix store and there is a new Tae Kwon Do school at Camp Creek that may be of interest.

Hi, P.! I live in College Park and I highly recommend soccer and/or gymnastics. My daughter participated in soccer at Welcome All Park and she now is in gymnastics at Conley recreation center in downtown college park. the sessions are very reasonable ($10 per) and they are very good. Also, check out Fulton county arts council. they have a class schedule online with 3 southside locations. Another thing to consider is girl scouts. my son is in boy scouts and loves it but since my daughter doesn't participate, I can't give more insight on that. I wish you the best. I have looked high and low for things for my children and I will admit most of the programs are concentrated in N. Fulton and Dekalb county.

Is there a community pool or neighborhood group you can join? You may also benefit from meeting other moms. If you're just looking for a destination, I'd seek out a community garden where you can visit weekly to see what new plants and veggies are growing -- maybe you could grow something together with your daughter.
