Weekly Programming with Children
Mentors kicked off the semester with a field day in the community! Salmon Run, Elm Street, and Riverside gathered at North Beach for a fun afternoon of games. New mentors were able to meet the kids and choose which program they wanted to join. Mentors and mentees participated in a fundraiser at UVM to raise money for their upcoming trip to Washington DC. After the fundraiser they played games on campus. The group had a blast apple picking!
