SPRING BREAK IN PARKS: If spring break snuck up on you 
and you're not sure what to do with the family - we have 
suggestions ... ahead ... on Passport to Texas. (March 10)

This is Passport to Texas

Sometimes things sneak up on us before we're ready. 
Take spring break, for example. Are you at a loss for what 
to do with the family this week? Robert Ramirez with 
Outreach and Education at TPW says there's something 
for everyone when you visit a state park.

42 -- There is something for everybody: everything from hikes to 
geocaching, to stargazing at night. The little "techies" can grab 
their iPads and get out there and utilize them for those activities 
only. The adults will also have plenty to do. There's a Go Fish 
program for the kids and adults; the Go Fish programs they teach 
families the basics of fishing. And what if you don't have 
tackle? Forty-three of our state parks have a tackle loaner 
program available. So, just look online and check to see if the 
park you're going to visit has the tackle loaner program available 
to them. And, speaking of online is that where people should 
start planning their trip? Yes. Definitely. Go to our website, and 
under the 'calendar' tab, click on 'kids' and the mid two weeks of 
March are chock full of events and activities and things for them 
to do.
