Would you believe me if I told you we're halfway through summer already?!
Whether you're Lakeside, Cajon Valley or Santee District - School starts back up in 5 WEEKS. I'm not going to shy away from the reminder that we only get 18 summers with our littles (gut punch, much??). After making this realization myself, I had to take a beat this week to just tidy up some summer housekeeping. Here are a few resources and ideas on how we can be making the most of this precious, precious time:
- Kids bowl free all summer (through Sept 14th!) at our local Parkway Bowl, among other locations around San Diego County: Here's how to cash in.
- East County VBS camps: There's still time. Even for those that are underway this week: Call! They just may have space for the last couple days.
- Your teens work out FREE: Teen Summer Challenge at Planet Fitness is underway until September 1st. Details here.
- Catch movies this summer for $1 every Tuesday and Wednesday through Aug 21st: here's the schedule of what's playing!
- And my husband would disown me if I didn't mention baseball! Mac Kid subscribers get 20% off tickets, and we've put together a guide on the tips and best days to bring your family to Petco Park. 2.5 more months to get to a game!
- $5 yogurt fill-up at Udderly Yogurt every Tuesday and Friday. Add the heavy toppings, baby ~ it's $5 no matter what!
Make sure you're following us on Facebook for last-minute local deals and freebies.
And don't forget to bookmark our East County Event calendar for outdoor movies, community events and special happenings here in Santee/El Cajon/Lakeside. We do our very best to keep you in-the-know on all that's free and cheap in East County!
I hope you've found this helpful, and more importantly, I hope you're making the most of this summer with your kids. I have caught myself several times (per day?!) exhausted and pining for bedtime. So, perhaps this article is more for me than it is for you.
Til next week,
Peace, Love and FAMILY FUN!
XO,
Linds
