Guest guest Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 For those of you in the Plantation area Pal Dynamites is for 5 and up and includes sibs. They bowl, basketball, softball, bike, bingo, dances. Each sport runs for about 2 months and cost 15. except bowling which is now 30. (the last time I went bowling without them I spent nearly that in the one afternoon.) They have "kids" up to and including adults and the woman that runs it, Luz, is a saint.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Good morning! I am new to this group...my name is and I am the Florida State Director of a not for profit charity Personal Ponies. www.personalponies-fl.org I have been reading your emails about getting a playgroup together and I would be more than happy to host a playgroup at the farm with our therapy ponies. The farm is located in Coconut Creek. Let me know when your group gets organized and we can discuss the details and pick a date! Sundays usually work best as the farm is quieter and not in the "work mode" as it is during the week! Looking forward to hearing from you! Warmest regards...
