June 12, 2008
Welcome to the ROCHESTERfamilies.com weekly newsletter.
Each week the newsletter is brought to you by the
ROCHESTERfamilies.com Family of Advertisers (Rochester Area
Family Y, Bob Miller - Magician!, Olive Juice Studios, Tim
& Sandy Williams Coldwell Banker Burnet and Color Me Mine),
www.rochesterfamilies.com/Rochester_MN_advertisers.html.
Can’t get enough of ROCHESTERfamilies.com? Check out our
Family Time and Family Calendar columns in Friday’s
Post-Bulletin’s Lifestyle section
(www.postbulletin.com/opinion/columnists) where you can
read all about Rochester’s Tennis Block Party (a fun way to
learn more about local tennis opportunities for all levels
of play). You’ll also find information on “Go Dog Go” @ The
Masque (you love the book, you’ll love the play), summer
camps @ Community Ed (still plenty to pick from), the SNAP
Bus (pulling into a park or school near you), and
strawberry picking at Sterling Farms (tentatively scheduled
to start June 16, yum!).
Also tune into the Tracy McCray show, 1340 KROC-AM
(www.KROC.com), Friday mornings at 9:40 a.m. for a quick
ROCHESTERfamilies.com rundown of this weekend’s
family-friendly events.
