Who knew the first week of summer could be this wild and wonderful?
Our campus kids had an incredible start to their first week off from school! Thanks to the generous support of our community, the children enjoyed a fun scavenger hunt filled with clues, to the tune of “Going on a Bear Hunt.” They swam like fish, hopped like frogs, and flew like birds at each clue stop. At every stop, the children received items to fill their summer survival bucket, including sunglasses, bubbles, crayons, and more.
A special thank you goes to the Sisterhood for Service of Bannon Lakes for purchasing the prizes and managing the clue stops. Students from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences also helped make the event enjoyable, and we appreciate the Tale Tellers for assisting with the clues, songs, and actions.
As the scavenger hunt concluded, the final clue led the children to the field for a special surprise: a bubble truck! The children and their families had a fantastic time.
We also want to thank Gather Church for sponsoring the bubble truck and contributing to our amazing summer kickoff.
