We are offering really fun classes this year and so far, our kids are having a blast. Our Late Night Friday teens hosted a Halloween Party for our CTWTY kids at Fort Boise Community Center on Friday, October 27 th. Volunteers from our BSU Service Learning crew and other staff made sure that everyone had a spooky good time. Process Improvements: Track FY 2007 Budget using Excel spreadsheet, increased communication among youth services staff for more collaboration. We have added a Tot s Nature Camp curriculum that was very successful this month. The study was bats and spiders and the little ones made projects, sang songs, and learned about both animals. We will be offering quite an extensive program this winter. Trends or Issues: Continue to market and conduct outreach for mini-grants to be implemented in FY 2007 Many of our classes are filling very quickly, and because of staff and facility space shortages, we have to turn children away. We are having a hard time keeping up with the growth!
