Insider Tip - Need A Nite Out And Can't Find

A Last Minute Sitter?

We've all been there...you need just two hours of sanity for
yourself or with your spouse. So here's a totally brilliant idea!
Drop off your kids (sign a waiver and leave a cell phone number, of
course!) for $7 per child at Dreams Gymnastics. Friday nights are
"Open Gym" from 6 - 8 p.m. and they're conveniently located seconds
away from the Glen Town Center.
The plan: Let the kids go nuts while you and your date enjoy a
peaceful dinner at one of several great restaurants. Just call
ahead in case there's a schedule change.

Dreams Gymnastics
3070 N. Lake (just west of The National 9 Golf Club and the
intersection of Lake and Shermer, north of the Glen Town Center.)
