Helping Out Rotary Club of Wolfeboro!
We hope you all had a great long weekend! We spent one of the days off of school helping the Rotary Club of Wolfeboro unload 300 Christmas trees for their Christmas Tree Sale! We love lending a helping hand when we can, especially this time of year!
Life Skills
Our Life Skills programs have been going strong! Last week we worked on a “Job Application Scavenger Hunt,” which is always a fun challenge! We also had a small group in the kitchen, making a yummy dessert for the group! Both very different approaches, yet still teaching life skills while making it fun and hands on!
Halloween at the KYC (with help from Diane!)
We had such a fun Halloween and hope you all did too! A ton of teens helped set up a table on Clark Rd and KYC adult volunteers handed out treats while teens trick-or-treated! We also had a Halloween party, and were visited by a very creepy/hilarious gorilla and played a bunch of silly Halloween themed games! Thanks to Diane T. for all of the Halloween themed activities, treats, prizes, and coordinating the gorilla visit; you make holidays around here so ridiculously fun!
5th Annual Kingswood Spook Center!
The 5th annual Kingswood Spook Center was an amazing evening! We had a huge turnout of children and families and KYC teens blew us away with their leadership! We are already excited for next year’s event!
