This month DREAM hosted Teen WAC! Youth from across Vermont got together for a day of fun in Burlington. Some of the teens raised money for the Penguin Plunge and made the plunge into the freezing Lake Champlain! The teens ate pizza, watched Saint Michael’s College women’s hockey game and ice skated in the afternoon! Networking affiliations were maintained with Project Vision, Mentor Connector, the Dream Center, and Services Rendered, Inc.
