Best for a hardy 5 year-old and up. No special climbing equipment needed. Let me know if you want to join us.
YOU ARE INVITED! INTERGENERATIONAL ART ACTIVITY
June 5th from 4 to 5:30pm
Please join Pam, Jenny and a group of children and adults from First Parish as we travel to Newbury Court to join residents and friends there for an intergenerational art activity. We will use scissors, paper, glue and have some good old-fashioned fun as we decorate the bags for the Caring Connection. The Caring Connection uses these bags when they take food to parishioners who are ill or whose families are having a difficult time. Don't miss it! This is a chance to do something good for others while having fun getting to know each other better as well.
Youth Community Service
Looking for Community Service hours? The First Parish Garden is perfect for teens. Send me an email if you want to learn more about this opportunity for teens.
