CONGRATULATIONS! Youth of the Month:

KAELA – OCELOT

Congrats to Kaela, our first Ocelot of the Month for this school year. Kaela’s favorite things to do at the club are playing carpet ball and hanging out in the games room. If Kaela had $1,000, she would first like to “help out her parents” and then spend the rest on a baby pig. Kaela likes to spend her Saturdays “laying down and watching YouTube”. When she grows up, she would like to be a stay at home mom. Awesome job, Kaela!

BEAU – JAGUAR

We would like to congratulate Beau, our Jaguar, for being our first Youth of the Month. Beau’s favorite thing about the club is the “Eat the World” activity on Fridays. If Beau had $1,000 he would spend it on toys- like “a drone”. Beau likes to spend his Saturdays playing at the park and when he grows up he wants to be a “scientist that makes Roblox”. Way to go, Beau!

IVAN – TIGER

Ivan is our first ever Tiger to be nominated as Youth of the Month! Ivan’s favorite thing to do at the club is play foosball in the games room. If Ivan had $1,000 he would spend it on a foosball table. Ivan’s favorite thing to do on a Saturday is go to Chuck E. Cheese and when he grows up he would like to be a policeman. You Rock, Ivan!
