The Village Mentoring Organization
Johnson DREAM Monthly Snapshot February 2014 Program Happenings and Highlights Teens from all over Vermont gathered at Bolton Valley Nordic Center for a day of cross-country skiing. DREAM teamed up with Catamount Trail Association, whose AmeriCorps member Emily Licht instructed mentors and mentees and led some fun (and very difficult) rounds of sharks and minnows. All 27 teens decided to explore Bolton’s Nordic trails, where they worked together to navigate the rough terrain. A partnership with the Johnson Elementary After School program was established this quarter in an effort to broaden youth recruitment efforts. So far three new youth have signed up and will begin with DREAM early in March! Participants Mentees
