Spring Fling

Spring has Sprung!

Let’s spring into action planting flowers, making it rain, and creating rainbows. This group will split its time between activities at the Cherry Hill Center and exploring local parks and trails.

When exploring local parks the staff and group will study local plants and animals while hiking. Staff will remove any litter from the ground while clients help them by verbally sorting items to be separated into garbage or recycling bags.

Emphasis will be placed on taking care of the environment, the importance of cleaning up after ourselves, after each other, and how each of us can take care of the planet through recycling and never littering!
