Moab Valley Multicultural Center
MVMC's first ever Family Literacy program came to a successful conclusion on Friday, August 27th as the children in our Summer Friends program rode their bikes home in the late summer heat. Our Family Literacy portion, which involves a weekly meeting involving Parenting support and Parent and Children Together time (PACT) ended on Thursday with a potluck gathering and plenty of reflection on all that was learned over the summer. In all, 6 families were served in this dynamic program, a solid number that we look to expand in upcoming sessions.
Some of the highlights of our rich summer program:
- Weekly trips to the Grand County Library and the Museum of Moab
- Journal writing, stepping stone making, and endless arts and crafts projects
- A visit to Rim Cyclery to learn how to work on our bikes and about bike safety
- A trip to the Goat Farm at the Castle Valley Creamery
- An awesome dance performance at the back to school carnival
- and much, much more!
A BIG thank you goes out to all of those in the community who helped make the program a success!
MVMC families have only a couple of weeks before classes start at the new HMK right down the street. Best of luck to all of them!
