Plenty of Fun This March along the South Shore Line

Winter is moving right along, and the fun is only picking up around the Region. As the snow comes and goes, there’s so much fun to do inside and out along the South Shore Line. Let’s see what we found!
Whether you walk from the station, ride your bike, or take a cab or Uber, the South Shore Line can get you to hundreds of events taking place throughout the month of March, and the best part: up to three kids can ride free with an accompanying adult.
Take a look at some of what we found for family fun along the South Shore Line and if we missed something, let us know with a comment or an email to share@ideasinmotionmedia.com and we’ll add to this list!
