The Madison Park Village DREAM Update May 2014 DREAM Programming: School year DREAM ended with the 3rd Annual Culminating Experience to Kimball Farms in April. School year DREAM will restart in September 2014. Summer DREAM begins the week of June 16th with half-day activities until the end of the school year. The first full week of Summer DREAM will occur the week of June 30th. DREAM Office: Summer Community Interns: The two Summer Community Interns this summer will be Sydney Durand and Sharldine Desire. Together with the support of the Program Staff, Sydney and Sharldine will be supporting all five communities and providing on-site activities and off-site trips for DREAM youth throughout the summer. Summer DREAM trips: This summer looks promising with several trips to the New England Aquarium and the Boston Harbor Islands already locked down. DREAM is also excited to announce that we will be able to send 25 youth sailing on the Roseway from July 14th -18th. We are currently in the works of planning additional field trip opportunities. Mentoring Night at Fenway Park: On Thursday, May 28th, 2014 a group of Northeastern matches, two mentees from Somerville Housing Authority, and two DREAM staff members attended the Mentoring Night at Fenway Park. These tickets were generously donated to DREAM via Mass Mentoring Partnership.
