KidsOutAndAbout's survey of the Top 20 Places to Take Rochester Kids

Here's your way to thank the people who create opportunities for kids in our area... and PLAN YOUR SUMMER BUCKET LIST at the same time! You'll select your three top places to go, and then can also select optional favorites in arts education, sports education, and STEM education. If you're not already a subscriber of our fabulous free weekly e-newsletter of what's coming up for kids, teens and families, you can sign up below.

The survey will take about 4 minutes, and you'll have the opportunity to enter to win a $100 Amazon gift card. You can also sign up for our free weekly e-newsletter of things to do if you don't already get it in your in-box. Voting ends June 19, 2023.

Please note: We have implemented an easy "test" as the last question to make sure you're actually a human answering this survey rather than a bot. (Also: We are purging "cheating" survey votes, so if you're inclined to try to stuff the ballot box on behalf of an organization, don't bother. We have a wicked-smart U of R data science student intern and are not afraid to use her!)
