Hey guncles, gather up the nieces and nephews and get ready to have some fun. The City recently announced that Denver's pools and recreation centers are free for kids this summer thanks to a $150,000 donation from Kaiser Permanente. The new offer applies to all kids under 18 and extends through August 15. Everybody in the pool! - via City Councilman Doug Linkhart

YouthLink summer activities guide


The 2009 "YouthLink," summer activities guide is now available. The guide, sponsored by Councilman Linkhart and the Denver Community Service Fund, lists hundreds of opportunities for metro-area youth.

"I am committed to making Denver the most viable and healthy community for youth by expanding the opportunities for kids and increasing awareness of existing programs. Through this guide we've made available an extensive list that is sure to have something for everyone," said Councilman Linkhart.

The bilingual guide lists 149 organizations located throughout the city. The activities, many of which are free, include summer sports; such as tennis, gymnastics or river rafting, to jobs in community-based service programs,
GED and language classes and culture and arts programs. The guide features a map indicating the location of each program.

Beginning next week the guide will be distributed to Denver public and private schools, and will also be available at Denver Public Libraries, Denver Recreation Centers and on Councilman Linkhart's website at www.douglinkhart.org. The publication can also be acquired by calling 720-865-8000.
