LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR:

Hello Friends,

The summer looks bright and sunny! I personally cannot wait to be out enjoying the look of the blue skies, smell of the green grass, and the feel of the warm air. We are excited to once again share an amazing summer with you and your family. Over the winter we enjoyed many successful programs and events. We are proud to say we had an amazing turnout for our ever-popular Daddy Daughter Dance. This is such a fun event that everyone is enjoyed by all. We also went on many adventures, we visited MSI Chicago, the Rockford Ice Hogs, and many more! If you couldn’t make it on these adventures, we hope you can make it on some of our summer adventures. Check out this guide to find the right program, event, or trip for you!
