There's a certain ineffable charm about family-focused events. Whether it's in the way that they manage to appeal to both young children and full-grown adults alike or in the potential for any event to shape lifelong memories in the kids enjoying them, family-focused events are joyous occasions for all involved. Summer is prime time for these experiences, and there are many to choose from for all types of interests.
Families with a yen for outdoor adventures have plenty of options during the summer. Often, outdoor activities tend to be definitively separated by age range because of the requisite skill levels, but that need not necessarily be the case. British tour operator PGL's Family Adventures are a series of exciting activities that equally appeal to all ages, and Colorado's Keystone Resort has ski runs for all ages as well as slopeside snack stops.
