Projects

• Cleaning out the storyroom - we are flipping it from take-home craft and virtual program prep to be empty and ready for programs again, although the current plan is to hold all in-person programs in our larger community room. I am tentatively thinking of having some drop-in programs in it in August.

It was a long, exhausting, and somewhat frustrating week. Next week I have more school visits, but they're all with kinder - 2nd grade, which is a relief as the 4th and 5th graders are (understandably) challenging. I have gotten nearly all the furniture, play area, etc. back in place and families immediately returned to the play area and a group of middle school D&D players are back.
