Windsor-Union Square DREAM Monthly Snapshot November 2015 Program Happenings and Highlights
This month the mentors left for winter break. The mentees will certainly miss their mentors for the next month. Windsor welcomed seven new mentors this month! Mentors and mentees went to The Montshire Museum and had a special lunch from King Arthur Flour. Mentor, Gautam Babu, held a teen culminating event. Teens from Northwoods and Windsor met up at the Pizza Chef in Windsor for dinner and then went bowling in Claremont, NH. Windsor welcomed two new mentees this month. Mentors have been working hard to recruit more youth. Teens from all three programs were invited to attend a teen dinner at the Northwoods community center. Three teens from Windsor attended. Mentees and mentors made chicken fajitas together and played board games.

Weekly Programming with Children
This month mentors had DREAM on campus once. The mentors and mentees did small group and one-on-one activities with the mentees. For the final DREAM of the year mentors had community dinner in the Union Square community room. DREAM dad, Scott Walder, cooked dinner for everyone. He prepared chicken and beef tacos. Many parents came, enjoyed the food, bonded with the mentors, and played games.
