March (or spring) break vacations should be a time for relaxing, recreation and rejuvenating. A time to get away from the stress of day to day work and school and have fun, positive family time. Traditionally a vacation involves traveling away from home, which can be exciting but also exhausting and expensive. An alternative to all the tedious planning and packing is a March Break Staycation: a vacation spent at home taking day trips to local attractions. Fortunately, if you live in or near Woodbridge, Newmarket or Bowmanville Ontario, there are many wonderful activities, events and adventures to fill your staycation week, regardless of your age and interests.
