This week consider introducing your child to theatre by going to the Newtown StageCo. Presents: The Little Mermaid Jr. What a better way to spark interest in a new activity than by seeing kids perform a Disney favorite? Or stop by Candlewood Lake Thursday night for a drive in movie for the whole family. Have a fire truck lover? Pop by Ridgefield Library for a touch a truck event Monday! Fruit picking is into the blueberry season! If you’re looking for a fruit picking outing check out All the You Pick Farms in Northern Fairfield County and Beyond.

With all the rain we have had be sure you’re following Your Fun Scout Facebook and Instagram for up to date changes and last minute pop up events.

New camps are starting soon, check them out now! Complete Summer Camp List for 2023.
