On Friday May 11th we hosted our end of the year party to celebrate all the successes from the last school year at the new Youth Development Center. Although construction of the Youth Development Center is still underway, the new playground was ready to go! Veteran’s United Home Loans and Heart of Missouri United way were there to see the kids play on the new playground for the first time. Also, Century 21 lent us their bounce house once again. Everyone had a BLAST! Head over to our Facebook page for more pictures.
