I will be coming close to this area in a week. We are spending a week about half hour away.
I need things to do that are fun not expensive to do with two small children .
Also is there a gym for women I can go to classes or use the equipment that will
not charge me an arm and leg?
One last question, where is the best place to shop for groceries and produce cheaply

go to voice of lakewood and click on july 19 issue. go to about page 32 & there's a few pages of things to do (starts with Washington DC) You can select which pages to print by choosing the pages icon (looks like six little boxes) & then checking off each page you want.
