First Aid Donations

Recently the KIA group from First United Methodist Church brought some totes that they had decorated and filled with first aid supplies to the Center. We really appreciate the adults that work with these youngsters. We are so fortunate to have people in our community that are concerned for those with disabilities. The children blessed us with handmade Valentines as well. Below you will see pictures of the children preparing the totes. Also, a picture of Carlyn and Stacey with our Nurse Amy. Thank you so much.

Valentine's Day at the Smith Center

The Center dining room was full of hearts, pink and red, for the Valentine Party on Monday the 14th. Staff worked hard to make the day special for our students. Music filled the air as they enjoyed a time of dancing and socialization with their friends. All involved enjoyed some delicious food prepared by staff and Karen Tucker Catering. Students were given the opportunity to purchase a candy gram or a flower gram to give to a special someone. These were a big hit. Thanks, staff for all your hard work.
