Summer Fun

Life is flourishing this summer. Astonished! Summer-Literacy students are delving into ‘Crazy Rich Asians” by Kevin Kwan. Astonished! Core Members are spending Monday afternoons exploring the natural world at the community garden they planted in June. They are engaging with nature through experiences like painting, meditating, making a bird feeder, and generally having fun and creating culture at the garden. The Big Sky Summer Adventure Program is a great way for Core Members to be together and be part of summer events, like the Queen City Ex, a Red Sox baseball game, a campfire, or a movie night. Check out our summer news here…..

Just Sayin
