Next week you'll be hours into winter school vacation, and your children will yawn and loudly announce “mom and dad, we’re bored.”
Your patience is waning as you search for that proverbial box of bath salts… Wait, this isn’t you! You are the refreshed and smiling parent who planned a fabulous family “staycation” that’s full of fun things to do! And the best part is you took advantage of some great deals in and around Marlborough!
1. Save your family entertainment dollars by taking advantage of the museum passes! The passes give you free or reduced admission to many local museums such as The Concord Museum, The Ecotarium, and the Discovery Museums, as well as the some of the more expensive Boston Museums. If you have a Marlborough Library card, you can reserve the pass in advance (recommended, especially during vacation weeks), and as long as you remember to pick it up and return it on time, there is no charge to borrow it. To reserve a pass, contact the Library’s main circulation desk at 508-624-6900 or online.
