Weekly Programming with Youth Birchwood mentors and mentees played Humans vs. Zombies on Champlain’s campus. Co-chairs introduced new mentors and mentees to the program. They had a pumpkin-painting party to celebrate. Birchwood DREAM played touch football at Champlain, where the new mentees taught their Program Empowerment Director how to throw a ball. Birchwood DREAM played Rock Band, a video game. Many mentees are very talented musicians! Thank you for your ongoing support of DREAM!
