Sunday Funday

Members became jugglers for this Sunday Funday! O’Ryan the Amazing taught everyone how to balance feathers and juggle scarves. Members loved passing around a spinning plate and using teamwork to make it happen! We also enjoyed some small Minute to Win It relay games: passing around beach balls using frisbees, completing word scrambles, balancing eggs on a spoon, and more!

Kids Who Care Day

Our friends worked hard to compile several community service projects on Sunday: baking brownies and cookies for Weinberg Terrace; packing welcome home bags and decorating banners for veterans; and putting together birthday gifts for Beverly’s Birthdays. Community members can also hop into Bunny Bakes to see some sweet messages on their hot drink sleeves made by our KWC Day attendees! Lastly, we are so proud of our Kids Who Care middle school leaders: Alia, Daisy, and Sophie. Thanks for stepping up and showing what good leaders looks like!
