Looking for fun ways to enjoy your holiday break?

Here are some ideas for giving back, getting out and about, and celebrating the season.

Get Out and Give Back
Why not VOLUNTEER this season? The holidays already have you in the giving spirit, so why not give a little love to your community? Read to children at the Santa Clarita Public Library. Help at the food pantry. Visit your local senior center. Help a neighbor. Little things can make a big difference!

How Strong Can You Get?
Try doing these strength-building exercises during winter vacation. Balance it out with some jogging, biking or walking, which not only help you feel great, but you’ll have more energy! By the time school starts, you’ll be active and feeling fantastic!

Enjoy the Great Outdoors & Indoors
It may be cold outside, but don’t let that stop you from having fun – learn to ice-skate or go hiking and explore nature at its best! Host a Holiday Movie Marathon – get ideas for movies from this list of fun holiday classics.

Your Journey Begins in Your Backyard
Explore the City’s 2015 Winter Seasons and register for great art classes, sporting activities, cooking programs, special events, and so much more.

Make or Bake It!
Make gifts for family and friends – Holiday gift ideas. Prepare a spread of some holiday snacks (like these easy-to-make chocolate-covered candy canes & pretzels) – More Holiday Recipes.

Join the fun on New Year’s Day
ARTIC CHILL – Polar Bear Swim – Ring in the new year by taking an exhilarating chilly ride down the waterslide at the Aquatic Center and enjoy some hot chocolate after the plunge!
