Before I decided to move to New Bern 14 years ago, I wanted to know what there was to do for kids. When I went online, I could not find a whole lot of information on New Bern but boy have we grown. Here are the tops seven things kids can do in New Bern.
1. The YMCA just off of Park Ave., offers several opportunities for kids to be involved in sports. They have basketball, soccer, swim and gymnastic teams. During the summer they offer 2 camps, a sports camp and a regular activities camp.
The YMCA also hosts some great camps like the British Soccer Camp,

Here is a great link to information on their 2 pools: http://www.swimmersguide.com/query/Detail.cfm?PoolID=733
2. The Strike Zone is a great place to bowl and play laser tag, the only place I know to do so!
3. The Swing Zone is the place to be if you want to play putt putt, video games, paint ball or challenge yourself in the batting cages.
4. Recreational Sports Teams can be found at many locations throughout New Bern: Soccer, football, basketball, baseball, gymnastics and lacrosse. Here are some links to these activities:

3 Reasons Why New Bern Nc is a Great Place to Live
Posted 02-15-2010 at 07:36 PM by ChristinaWard1967
I read a blog a few years ago that said New Bern NC has a lot of crime and it was not a good place to live, all I have to say is [COLOR=Red]what!!!![/COLOR]
1. New Bern has a very friendly atmosphere. People actually say hi and wave to you. I read the paper and watch TV, and no mention of any crime sprees.
2. I have been out in town at different times of the day and night and have not seen anything.
3. Check out the crime stat's in New Bern, where does it show we have a high crime rate?
If anyone that lives in New Bern reads this please sound off!!
