May In Review
 In may we watched back to the future with Kitty, gardened with Martha, worked on greeting cards with Sarah, visited the Norman Williams Library, I like you therapy with Kitty, delivered Pentangle Posters, and walked around town.


Mid-day we sang with kerry, did pottery at Purple Crayon, had band class with Mark Van Gulden, made a music video with Sarah, danced with Tiffany, did music movement with Community Classroom and went swimming with them, We took a fieldtrip to the Hood Musuem of Art, we made pine cone bird feeders with Lolly,  danced with Angel and played at Vail Field. 

In the afternoons we learned sign language with Nancy Therialt, did yoga with Tita and Anne, fitness with Bari, art wuith Fiona and practiced for our upcoming musical.

We read books with TJ, Tom Wright, Anthea LaVallee, Phil Swanson, Pam Pickett and Ron Jaynes. 


We also had a prom that was put on by many Woodstock Union High School Students. It was totally awesome! The students decorated the gym and it was breath-taking. They also dressed up and came to the prom. We all danced together Zack's Place, Students, Faculty, Community Members and Board Members!

Everybody loves a hukilua

Where the laulau is the kau kau at the big luau!"

 

 

Grab your grass skirts, kick off your shoes and get ready to party like it's Maui. Shimmy up to the Tiki Bar for a cold Harpoon and enjoy a traditional Hawaiian meal. You will be entertained by Hawaiian dancers shaking their you-know-whats, Fire dancers and the exciting sounds of the band Red Seven.

Zack's Place Has Finished the Capital Campaign!
 
In May we closed on the building we currently occupy and we are officially closing the Capital Campaign to purchase the building. We raised enough to come within reach of our goal and are able to do a good part of the necessary renovations. We would like to thank everyone who helped make this dream a reality. Soon we will be announcing a celebration and have a formal press release. WE ARE OVERJOYED!
