The energy and excitement of over a hundred people who attended our Summer Family Networking Picnic was wonderful to see yesterday. Families connected with other families while enjoying a dinner in the grassy backyard of our main office. The many smiling kids walloped the piņata, spent time in the mist tent, enjoyed arts and crafts and bubbles, and participated in many other fun-filled activities! Check out the pictures by clicking below.

On June 10th, 100 kids including 25 receiving services from The Arc Baltimore and The Arc Central Chesapeake Region along with their families participated in the inclusive PLAY (Promoting a Lifetime of Activity for Youth) program held at Camden Yards run by the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society. The kids participated in running and batting drills on the field, listened to talks about the dangers of steroid use and the importance of making healthy decisions, and heard Orioles outfielder David Lough discuss how nutrition helped him to succeed in baseball.

At the ribbon cutting ceremony for their new location in Hunt Valley, Royal Farms CEO, John Kemp, presented The Arc Baltimore with a generous contribution for our new employment program, Career Catalyst! Baltimore Raven Torrey Smith was on hand to celebrate the store opening. Royal Farms, thank you for making a difference in the local community.
