Broward water parks now open on weekends; bicycle month
Four water parks operated by the Broward Parks and Recreation Division are open on a weekend-only schedule, until school ends (not counting spring break, when they're open every day).
The water might be a little chilly for us adults, but I've been there with my son, and he doesn't mind it.
Plus, as hot as it was over the weekend, we almost jumped in our pool, until we saw the temperature at about 72!
Also, March is bike month in Broward and Palm Beach; here's my story on the events. Among the more popular family events are bike rodeos -- good for teaching bicycle safety to young ones -- and family rides. Palm Beach also went to bicycle month for the first time this year, with events listed at www.1800234ride.com.
