BROTHER/SISTER SPOTLIGHT

Cori and Bailey have a lot of things in common which makes them an excellent match!

 

Cori says her favorite things about Bailey are that she has an outgoing and active personality. Bailey says her favorite things about Cori are that she likes the vampire diaries, she is nice, and she lets Bailey make most of the decisions. Bailey also likes that Cori likes to play hockey, listen to music and watch movies.

 

Some of their favorite activities to do together are watch the Vampire Diaries,  go ice skating, watch Netflix, play racquetball or just hang out at the YMCA.

 

Cori says that her favorite part about being a mentor is "having someone look up to you so much. I love seeing how excited Bailey gets when I pick her up from school, or when we're planning our next activity together."

 

Cori and Bailey both agree that their favorite day they have had together was when they went to Pizza Ranch and both got pizza and ice cream (their favorite foods!) then they went to Cori's apartment to watch their favorite show together with her roommates. Bailey loves spending time with Cori's roommates and they enjoy her company as well!

 

Congratulations to Cori and Bailey, Match of the Month for February!

Mom, I really like STRIDE. It's  really helping me. I don't think I'm bad at running any more, and it's helping me have more muscles in my legs and it helps me feel better about myself too.
