Five new mentors joined the Birchwood DREAM program this year and are off to a great start! Mentors are excited for another year of programming and team-building, and have already begun engaging youth more in their community.

Weekly Programming with Children
Mentors travelled to Birchwood for games in the community, including Giants, Wizards, and Elves, Freeze Tag, and Pudding. During another Friday, Birchwood mentees went to campus for field games and food in the school cafeteria. Mentors and mentees also built a scarecrow for their community garden, which has a pumpkin head and, of course, sports a yellow and blue DREAM shirt!
