Summer of Service
This summer, children ages three years old - 5th grade can make a BIG difference in our community. We've planned 28 hands-on service opportunities designed for little hands with big hearts. Come once or come often — every act of kindness matters!
Every Tuesday

Join us for a fun service project every Tuesday at 10 a.m. in June and July. Pickup is at 11:30 a.m. but guardians are also welcome to stay. More details for each project are listed below. Pay attention to the location — We are intentionally engaging with the community!

The USD 320 Summer Lunch Program takes place in our Fellowship Hall. Lunch is served Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. in June and July. This free program is available for all children in the area, ages 1-18.
