Was hard to put together our first meeting without our good friend and colleague Dom, but in his honor we will continue the great work! Wonderful first meeting of the school year super excited for our next meeting Elementary!

1st Meeting of the school year this Tuesday!!

Last year went so well that we are partnering with Excalibur Outreach again this year to help serve familes with students in Wheat Ridge schools!! Our goal is to serve at least 100 (which would be $3000) but hope to be able to serve all who need it (163 last year). https://www.paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=2JDC885PJE6G6
