Hurray for Au Pair in America! On Thursday, June 27 all Au Pairs, Host Families and children will have a discount on Mini Golf at Bohrer Park in Gaithersburg as they have designated that day as Au Pair in America Day and golf will be $6 for unlimited play!
I know that many closer-to-DC towns think that Gaithersburg is too far, but while it really isn’t (either via 270 or via back roads), its lack of congestion, inexpensive activities and plentiful free parking are worth the ride.
If you are willing to drive a little further West and North you will discover a great and very inexpensive place to have family fun: Bohrer Park at Summit Hall – just off of 355 north of Montgomery College and just down the road from the Gaithersburg Costc0! (sharing the same driveway as Gaithersburg High School). Click here for directions.
Bohrer Park offers Mini Golf, a Water Park and a Skate Park all in a shaded, outdoor complex.
Mini Golf: Mini Golf per game is $6 or unlimited for $8

A major attraction at The Water Park (for those 48″ and taller) is the double water slide that is 250 feet long and twists and turns into the splash pool. For the adventuresome, the blue slide offers a breathtakingly fast ride, while the white slide offers a tamer, slower water journey. Choose the trip that suits you!
The children’s splash pool, designed for children of a height 54 inches or less, includes a custom in-water play structure with open and closed flume slides that pays homage to the state of Maryland with Black-Eyed Susan and Blue Heron play features.
There are play pieces outside the pool, plenty of shade for little ones, and a special eating area for families. For your convenience, there is even a bathroom located within the fenced area equipped with a changing station.
The locker rooms are designed to accommodate the needs of our patrons and feature child height hair dryers, baby changing stations, lower toilet facilities, a family changing room and all traditional amenities.
Your day at the park is not limited to the water and sun! Enjoy our playground, picnic tables, and a snack bar managed by Boardwalk Fries. You’ll also find high back sand chairs and chaise lounges spread throughout the park. And when you need to get out of the sun, there’s plenty of shaded areas.
