There were no regular DREAM Fridays in March as mentors were in finals and then on spring break. Windsor mentors joined their Dartmouth DREAM peers from the Northwoods and Hollow Drive Local Programs for a start of term meeting on Friday, March 29. Mentors reviewed driving policies, planned fundraisers, and ate ice cream. Over 50 mentors participated in the meeting.
