Summer is an exciting time for everyone, but it’s an especially fun time for kids. ROOSEVELT POOL 910 Dorr St. Or at least it should be.

Some children, like my daughter and son pictured with me and my wife below, have access WILSON POOL to resources and opportunities that allow them to spend the summer months playing sports, 3253 Otto St. attending camps, developing life skills and making friends. PICKFORD POOL But not every child in Toledo is as fortunate. For these kids, a lack of good options can often 3000 Medford Dr. lead to bad decisions. NAVARRE POOL Coming out of the pandemic, it is more important than ever that kids have productive ways to 1001 White St. spend their time. We want kids to have positive experiences this summer, and one of the ways to do that is to make sure that every kid has access to fun and healthy programs and activities. JAMIE FARR POOL 2000 Summit St. On these pages you will nd a listing of all of the many kid-friendly, family-friendly programs that are available in Toledo this summer.
