Summer Activities Guide: a directory of programs for kids

Breathtaking possibilities
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 03.16.2008
School will be out faster than kids can say: I'm bored.
That means now is the time to plan activities to make sure the kids stay busy, safe and to try something new. Translation: Sign 'em up for camps, academic enrichment classes, organized athletics or arts exploration programs.
The choices this year are enormous, and they get more exotic every year. A chance to try out a career in law or tour the Southwest in a motorcoach are enough to make us want to turn back the clock.
So, with red pencil at the ready, find a comfortable spot for you and your child to go through the 2008 Star Summer Activities Guide. You're sure to find plenty of interesting possibilities.
Please note, entries have been shortened for space and many programs listed here have additional offerings. Look for a fall program guide in July.
