Wondering what activities there are for children? Check out the Kids
section for child care options, sports, story hours or youth groups.
For adults, visit the Community section to see where to find animal
services, health care or a garden club. Outdoorsy folks will enjoy
the many opportunities to appreciate our temperate climate in the
Outdoors and Recreation chapter. And the more politically minded will
want to know how to contact public officials, including members of the
City Council and the many boards and commissions that keep Mountain
View running smoothly.
In addition to the thousands of listings inside, you can visit mv-voice.

surrounding communities, including Palo Alto, Stanford and Menlo Park,
as well as others in our region.
