Urban Adventurers

Adventure is the name of the game when it comes to summertime entertainment for the troops, and moms are constantly looking for answers to this age old dilemma.

Have you thought about taking the kids for some face-to-face interaction with a prehistoric creature? Or would they rather get close to nature with a visit to an urban farm where they can name a newborn calf?

Princes and princesses in your family will love playing make believe, hide ‘n seek, or escape the dragon in one of the many outdoor mazes. And let us not forget about some of the never-before-seen artefacts that can be discovered for your little adventurer.

And where pray tell, does one embark on such an adventure? Our nation’s capital, in the heart of Ontario, a great place for a summer holiday. We’re talking Ottawa of course, and the good news is that you and your family have a chance to win a trip there. Register today on ontariotravel.net for the Museums and Mazes Contest.

Your family of four could enjoy:

• A three-night stay at the Residence’s Inn by Marriott in Downtown Ottawa.
• A $2000 Family Travel Allowance.
• Admission to the Canadian Museum and a gift shop welcome basket.
• A guided tour through the Canada Science and Technology Museum, including a behind-the-scenes look at the museum’s collection of 40,000 objects—most of which aren’t shown to the public.
• A ‘Be a Farmer for a Day’ experience at the Canada Agriculture Museum where you’ll get a hands-on guided tour of this unique demonstration farm in the heart of the city. Make a tasty treat in the kitchen and care for the animals in the barn. You’ll even get the honour of naming a newborn calf!
• A guided tour of Saunders Farm and its amazing mazes, where you’ll also be served a gourmet meal on the top of Witch Mountain.
• A family pass to the Bytown Museum, the oldest stone building in Ottawa, where you’ll explore the city’s rich history—from its early days as Bytown to the present-day nation’s capital.

Who knew the home of the House had so much adventure to offer your family? Now you do.
