Community Helpers Week
In our preschool programs we recently explored the occupations of different “Community Helpers.” During this week we had a visit from a local dentist office as well as one of our grandparents who is a postal worker. The children enjoyed learning about these two helpers, and enjoyed the goodies they were able to take home! A big thank you to all of our local Community Helpers who work so hard to make our community a wonderful place to live.

Mad Science Week at Summer Camp
During Mad Science week at Summer Camp, Campers participated in cool science experiments through nature and chemistry. A big hit with our campers was the Mentos and Coke Explosion! If you scroll down to our last photo, you’ll see the result. We included a YouTube video by MythBusters of the Discovery Channel that explains the reaction.
