Arc in the Park is official! 🙌🏼

Thanks to Keep Waco Beautiful and City of Waco - Public Information, the Arc of McLennan County Aktion Club officially adopted Viking Hills Park!

Aktion Club is the official Kiwanis Club of Waco chapter that empowers adults with disabilities to volunteer in their community through inclusive, hands-on experiences, and we’re proud to be the first chapter in Waco. 🎉

Moments like this are just one layer of the work we do every day to support adults with IDD in our community. Behind every park cleanup, every skill built, every friendship formed, there’s a member making it possible.

Want to be part of the ripple effect? Become a member of The Arc of McLennan County to help fund the programs, advocacy, and opportunities that make days like this possible. Every membership creates opportunity, not just for our participants, but for our entire community.
