☀️🎨🏀 KLS & PKS Summer Recreation is in full swing, and we are having an amazing time!
Our first full week was filled with fun, laughter, learning, and adventure. Campers have been enjoying a wide variety of activities including games, arts and crafts, music, sports, and exciting team challenges like Tic-Tac-Toe Flip Cup, where players had to successfully flip and land a cup before claiming their spot on the board. The friendly competition and teamwork have been incredible to watch! Every day brings new opportunities to learn, create, and make memories with friends.
We were also excited to get out into the community, with some groups making trips to the pool and spending time at Key Largo Park flying kites, playing games, and enjoying the beautiful Florida sunshine. Seeing the smiles, teamwork, and excitement from our students has made this summer truly special already—and we're just getting started!
A very special THANK YOU goes out to The Keys Children's Foundation and Ocean Reef Community Foundation. Your generous support makes this program possible and provides our children with opportunities to learn, grow, explore, and have an unforgettable summer experience. We are incredibly grateful for your commitment to our youth and our community. ❤️
Thank you for helping us create a summer filled with fun, friendship, and lasting memories!
