May Recap
Dear Reader
What a month May has been. We got better weather which means more fun outside, we had our annual Spring for Children fundraiser which was a success and we got prepared for some of our MELC students to graduate up to the MLC. Some of us got our belts from our martial arts partnership. May was not as jam packed as April was but we know that there is sunshine and relaxation in our future. We are so READY for summer time, we have some fun field trips to be on and we are so ready to jump in the pool and splash around in the fresh ocean water.
