Variety of options for keeping students busy, kicking

June 13 is the last day of school for the Alpine Union School District. Here are some ideas for summer activities and care.

There are a few options for kids interested in soccer.

“Our first day was April 6 at the Alpine Community Center,” said program coordinator for Soccer Shots and an Alpine resi­dent, Maddy Kossman. “Soccer Shots are for social/emotional skills as well as motor skills. There is one ball per child, ver­sus one ball per group.”

“Soccer Shots started out on the East Coast. And my boss, Liz Barker, introduced the franchise eight years ago. We serve locations in San Diego’s north­east, south, and east county,” Kossman said.

“We have classes for 3 to 6-year-olds and minis 2 to 3-year-olds,” said Kossman. Contact Soccer Shots for their summer event schedule.
