Get your kids away from the TV and out playing. That’s the message the YMCA is delivering this Saturday, 6 October, in conjunction with Nickelodeon. The kids channel will be going dark from noon to 3pm to celebrate their day of play (or, you know, three hours of play) and the Dodge YMCA (225 Atlantic Ave.) will be hosting a coordinating event with face painting, a dance party, giveaways and healthy entertainment for families.
