NOTE DATE CHANGE NEXT PROGRAM NOV 13 10:00-4:00pm $100/ session Please join us SUNDAY November 13th as we travel to Harpers Ferry National Historical Park in West Virginia. We will start our visit with fitness hiking the Murphy-Chambers Farm (easy to moderate) trail which takes us through fields and woods allowing us to see views of the Shenandoah River and old Civil War cannons. Next, we'll tour through historic Lower Town to experience 19th century architecture, the old confectionary, boarding house and John Brown's fort. We will order and eat our lunch in one the town's restaurants. After lunch, we will walk across the Potomac River on a pedestrian bridge to take in more of the beautiful mountain and river views. If time permits, we may be able to shop in some of the old antique stores so bring some spending money!

What's involved?
Weekend Enrichment Mega Respite is a full-day of stimulation and exploring our community. Attendees will take part in our neighborhoods and surrounding areas by visiting restaurants, cleaning up and respecting nature, hiking, learning outdoor living skills, and the world around them. Our staff will help them manage self-regulation and calming strategies. Outings will last all day so bring your lunch and your brain power! The group will meet at 10:00am and return at 4:00pm. Each outing will be different and exciting with a great mix of fun and learning. All classes will be taught by trained and certified special education teachers, assisted by adults and volunteers with extensive experience in special education. |
