Every Monday night they come together as a team to improve their physical fitness, social skills, team spirit, sportsmanship, fine motor skills through arts and crafts, and gross motor skills through specially designed games, like bunco and beanbag baseball. They broaden their horizons through events such as special guest speakers (police and fire department) and various entertainers. They also have fun participating in community events such as bowling, Special Olympics, Mardi Gras, Fourth of July parade, Christmas hay ride and swim party. The reading and writing program provides them with educational growth, enhances their communication and life skills. These programs also benefit the family members by providing them with friendships, support and networking, especially as part of our family night events.
