Back-to-School Block Party!
Come celebrate the beginning of another year of learning, growth, and fellowship at our Back-to-School Block Party on Friday September 16th, 4pm-6pm, right before the first RFS session! We will be located by OCC. Food will be free and catered by Nelson’s Deli. Gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, and vegan options are available. This will be a great opportunity to connect with new and old friends. Let’s start this school year well with friends, games, and free food!
