Greetings!

July is here!  Good ole' hot July.  We're planning some serious fun for this month and invite you to take a look. Don't forget that some activities require pre-registration to help us plan better.  The Aaron Nigel Smith concert was a blast and we are so proud to have had him visit with us. Be sure to check out the photo album and the videos from the night! 

Piper the PelicanWhat did you think about The BIG Reveal?!  Don't know what I'm talking about? I'm so sorry that you missed it!  Our BIG reveal was our new mascot & friend, Piper the Pelican!  See all the fun in this set of pictures from the event this past Friday!  Piper will be available for play in the center and can be booked for special events.  Contact Kim Walker if you have any questions!

This workshop is being offered to teach kids in a really fun, creative atmosphere the benefits of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".  Kids will learn the impact of trash on their environment and what they can do, in their own homes, to help make their own impact.  Additionally, kids will take everyday, common trash (like plastic water & soda bottles and plastic shopping bags) items and create unique, interesting things that they can take home.  We'll be teaching kids about making "Plarn", making beautiful art projects out of plastic bottles. 

This session is limited to 15 children ages 6 and up and the cost for all 3 days is $30 per child (member) or $35 (non-member) and includes all day play, materials and a snack.  Pre-registration is required so please call 985-340-9150 or email us.
