Summer Fun 2016


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 08/14/2016
Summer Fun has become a tradition for Bo’s Place families, as it provides an environment to experience joy and happiness despite a great sadness in their lives. The activities we offer during Summer Fun allow both children and their parents to work out their grief in their own way. As a volunteer, you can make a difference in the life of a grieving family by providing children and adults time to heal and re ect during the time of year when they are away from school activities.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
