Friendship Awards

This past weekend, Friendship Circle families gathered at Schenley Park to enjoy outside time together celebrating everyone’s contributions to FC throughout the year. We really enjoyed tasty treats like popcorn, cupcakes, and candy. Members lined up to get Kona Ice and we also got some of the coolest balloon designs including fishing poles, swords, and butterfly wings that people were sporting throughout the ceremony. We congratulated and thanked our FC members for their commitment to Friendship, Staff for their support in bringing FC programming to life, and our Families who help make our community such a wonderful one. It is always so exciting ending the program year and kicking off the summer months with everyone together. Can’t wait to continue making memories with our FC family throughout the rest of the year.
