Hunting Around for Activities

Normally, each "Take Five" column begins with a recap of something that's going on that day that residents should know.

This week, we hit a bit of a wall—there just aren't a whole lot of activities in town because of the holidays and week off from school. 

While we have a list, the column might take a break from the norm for part of the week.  Instead of five things you can visit today, there might be five things you didn't know we had in town or five things you can to do get ready for summer. Consider it "Take Five" 's spring break trip.

Of course, if there are fun activities, we'll find them and include them too.

Here's what you need to know today.

1. You Need to Know It’s Spring Break: Schools are off this week!  Expect to see kids hanging out around town.   They’ll return to the classroom April 26.
2. You Need to Know There are Still Programs at the Library: While most programs are geared for younger kids, open most of the week. 
3. You Need to Know Knitting’s for Everyone: The group is open to all.
4. You Need to Know When to Leave Town: Need somewhere to take the kids that’s out-of-town?  Prices for individual activities are available on their website, http://www.alstedefarms.com, though unlimited access passes cost $18.95 per child.
5. You Need to Know It’s the First Night of Passover: Passover begins tonight at sundown and concludes on the 26th.
