Over 150 guests, including Bigs & Littles, staff & the Board of Directors joined us for our Annual Welcome Summer Picnic at the Harlem Road Community Center. Guests enjoyed a barbecue dinner, crafts and summer picnic favorites like tug of war and sack races. In addition to celebrating the start of summer, we recognized our 5 Little Brothers & Sisters who graduated from high school this year and their Bigs who supported them along the way. During this presentation, we also announced some exciting news…The Big Brothers Big Sisters Daemen College Scholarship! Our very own Big Sister Sandra Looker, a Daemen staff member in financial aid, shared that any Little graduating from high school, that attends Daemen College, will receive a $500.00 scholarship per year while completing their undergraduate studies! We are so proud of all our graduating Littles and truly enjoyed spending time with all of our matches and guests at this annual event. We hope you enjoy the photos!
