From February 15-19, 2016 those of us who live and work with school-aged youth will have a break from our usual routine while most schools in our area are closed.
With your help, we’ve gathered LOTS of information to help families and youth make the most of this time. We hope you will join us in sharing these ideas and resources with friends, neighbors, colleagues, and young people you know. For starters:
- Check out the Gill-Montague Community School Partnership online calendar for information on scheduled events.
- Like and follow our Facebook page! We’ll be highlighting and sharing ideas, resources, and programs there all week long.
- Visit this website, especially if Facebook is not your thing. We’re planning to cross-post most of the information we put on social media right on our homepage next week.
We also hope you’ll find time to enjoy and appreciate some of these wonderful places in Turners Falls next week:
- The Great Falls Discovery Center, open 10 am-4pm every day from now through Feb 20th
- The Rendezvous and Great Falls Harvest Restaurant, the Great Hall at the Discovery Center and the Storefront Galleries on Avenue A, all hosting art exhibits in conjunction with Black History Month: Music and Diversity II
- The Carnegie Library, which has several special activities planned and will be open every day this week except for Sunday and Monday
- Unity Skate Park, now open on good weather days until dusk!
Thank you again for all you are doing to help make our community a better place for youth and for all!
