Free admission, free massages, half-off pool, extended happy hour menu and raffle prizes at Mom's Night Out this Thursday.
Your teens are holding a car wash at the high school Saturday. The grandparents volunteered to take the younger children to a movie Sunday afternoon. Your 'tweens take tap on Wednesday evening. It’s your time. Take it.
Each week, we’ll tell you about one great idea to give you a much-deserved break and make your life a little easier, maybe a whole lot easier.
On Thursday, from 5-8 p.m., moms throughout Santa Cruz County are invited to Surf City Billiards in Santa Cruz as part of the first “Mom’s Night Out.”

Playdates with other moms are fun, but a night away from your kids will give you a chance to relax and, maybe, finish a sentence.
“I really love going out," Gradek said, "but avoid many of the bars and clubs I used to go to pre-family. The dive bar scene is just not cute anymore. Surf City Billiards is a more upscale venue that has a mature menu for food and drinks.”
If you can't make it Thursday, take some time for yourself by stopping in at for a taste of delight and a bite of gourmet.
