Our adventure up Mount Elmore from a recent Vacation Discovery Day |
We have been enjoying the beautiful fall weather and will continue to spend much of our afternoons outside. As the sun sets earlier and the temperature begins to drop please begin sending your children with appropriate winter gear. Insulated boots, jacket, snow pants, hat and gloves are essential to have fun outdoors. If you have outgrown children’s winter clothing please consider donating it to Apple Tree. I will work to supply gear to families that could use support, please reach out with what your child needs and the sizes you are looking for.
