Our next hop is at Elmwood Park!

This Thursday, July 12th, come hangout in the shaded, sandy playground of Elmwood Park. Elmwood is on 64th street between Pacific and Dodge, right behind UNO.  We will have an event starting at 9 am hosted by the YMCA. The Y will be leading a multi-age level activity for the kids.

They provide children and adults alike with a place to exercise, to learn and grow, and belong. They help children learn healthy habits, learn new skills, and guide them to be strong, respectful adults.
