The Arc's Final 2010 YESS Open House
Wednesday, July 21, 2010
Aley Recreation Center (1749 S Martinson connected to Stanley elementary)
Wednesday night at 5:30 at the Aley Recreation Center (1749 S Martinson connected to Stanley elementary) we will have the final YESS open house of 2010. The event is sponsored and hosted by Cross Road Fellowship Bible Church who has taken on The Arc as a local mission project. They are providing and serving dinner for approx 400 as part of this event using 100 volunteers to accomplish this feat. Through there generosity we are able to provide dinners for all our families.
Along with the dinner, there will be a talent competition from the YESS kids and annual staff auction and raffle. The fund raising portion of the event will help to cover some of the multiple cuts the program endured this year. This is an important event to the program and a great opportunity for the families participating.
