o  Sports o  Cultural camps exploring dance, drama and art o  Surfing and skateboarding clinics o  Water sports at the Santa Monica Swim Center o  Programs at PAL and Virginia Avenue Park o  Volunteer opportunities o  Camp Santa Monica o  Rosie’s Girls

This year’s guide also includes information from the Santa Monica Pier (with bonus coupon!) and the Santa Monica Public Library, along with safety tips from the Police Department.

Don’t wait – pick up a copy today at City Hall, the Ken Edwards Center, the Libraries, Reed Park, the Swim Center or Virginia Avenue Park. The guide is also available online at www.smgov.net.
