We've done Steve and Kates at Blaine in the past. 7:30 am - 6 pm. Good for 7+ in my opinion.

Mazi Fitness in Bucktown offers great Boot camp classes!

The RISE fitness. http://www.fitnessintheparks.com/ Highly recommend! (They're running a $4 for the first month promo, too. ;))

Personal trainer at LSAC, Pam Staton, has a boot camp she leads at LSAC. I never could get up early enough to do it, I would have her personally torture me afterwards. Not intense-seeming workouts, but you definitely feel it afterwards. Like a fruity, alcoholic drink.

Urban Pooch is pretty solid.

It's closer to O'hare but I heard Paradise 4 Paws is cool. I've used dogvacay.com & had some good experiences. You can put in your location & dates & see available pet sitters in your area.

Pooch Hotel in Lincoln Par! They are great!

Rover.com it's genius!

Try Hello Doggy on Lawrence and California

Great schools! Check Parker district websites and local church's vbs programs? Bethany Lutheran in town does a sports camp in the summer as well

We love JB! My son will be entering 4 th grade in August too. Maybe they'll be classmates! We're not native to this area either, our son has made friends via sports (tcsa for soccer and BYB for baseball) and more recently Cub Scouts. Both TCSA and BYB group kids in the rec program by school/area, which helps them meet people nearby.

You should consider joining the Batavia Mothers Club. http://www.bataviamothersclub.org/

We love JB Nelson so much! We moved here from one of the top school districts in the state we are a more happy with JB than our previous school! Welcome to the area!

from an article I found online: As I stated above, it is important to be in the sun for a little bit without sunscreen, but if you plan on being outside more than 20-30 minutes, it's important to wear sunscreen. According to Webmd.com, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. is the peak UV radiation time, so try to limit sun exposure during these times. Of course, it's not always possible to avoid the sun during these hours. If you plan on being out in the sun, it is recommended that a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater be used, and that it be applied at least 30 minutes before sun exposure. Here are a couple of different sunscreens that I have had good experiences with: Coppertone Kids 70+ SPF Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB Protection. Also, I recommend Coppertone Kids 30 SPF 6 Hour Waterproof Sunblock Stick with UVA/UVB Protection. I love the stick for the face as regular sunblock can run into your eyes when you sweat or get wet and can really sting.

I've heard good things about Camp Merry Heart! http://www.easterseals.com/nj/our-programs/camping-recreation/camp-merry-heart.html

Swans Crossing, Ellenborough Reserve.

Allison Lackey is a Spanish tutor. Not sure why this post won't let me tag her, but if you search the site for her name her post will show up.
