Marching into Spring!

Hello from Community Connections!

Spring is on it's way and the Community Connections program is busier than ever. During the month of February we averaged over 50 service hours per week! During two of those weeks we had over 60 service hours. That's quite an accomplishment.

We are really enjoying our work at the Hiller Aviation Museum. It's really interesting to clean the exhibits; we learn a lot while we are working. We are also helping to take care of the Lodge at Foothills Park in Los Altos. Hopefully in April we will start another partnership with the Mid Peninsula Open Space Project.

Our television program, "Abilities United Presents: Community Connections" is also doing quite well. It airs several times a week on the Media Center Channel in Palo Alto and on CreaTV in San Jose. We will be filming another episode in June.

Some of our upcoming events include starting a volunteer work site at El Camino Hospital, participating in an educational series presented by the YMCA and working with Castilleja High School on a community service project.

Stay tuned; it promises to be a very exciting Spring!

Thanks for reading.

Andrea
