Hollow Drive DREAM Monthly Snapshot February 2014 Program Happenings and Highlights • DREAM teens gathered at Bolton Valley for an exciting afternoon of cross-country skiing for WAC (Winter Adventure Camp) at the beginning of the month. The group of 40 teens and mentors played sharks and minnows, learned how to fall and stand up on their skis, and everyone shared a great day at the mountain! • Dartmouth DREAM’s Local Programs collaborated to host a very successful ‘Experience Auction,’ selling things like boomerang lessons and an hour of iceskating with Dartmouth Hockey’s starting goalie! All together they raised over $700 dollars! Participants Mentees

Weekly Programming with Children • Hollow Drive held three Fridays this month with one afternoon of cookie baking and decorating as well as 2 one-on-ones. • The group missed one Friday because of a snowstorm, but their dedicated mentors decided to use this time to prepare for their fundraising auction the next day!
