My son has recently joined a group in town sponsored by a local church. Hope Academy is a supervised social gathering for young adults with disabilites that meets every Wednesday. The leader is a retired 3rd grade teacher who is assissted by a volunteer RN to help deal with individual's medical issues. There is a visiting music teacher once each month and parents take turns volunteering time and talent to help entertain these special kids. One of the church's other ministries provides lunches.

| Field trip to Marble Slab Creamery! |
Activities include arts and crafts, bowling, Wii games, music, and field trips.Today's field trip was to Marble Slab Creamery where we indulged in our choice of ice cream flavors and many tasty toppings!
Happily our field trip was not cancelled because of the horrible weather... dark clouds and rain started blowing in as we were heading out. A tornado watch was issued. Shortly after we got home... the sirens start blaring... just in time for me to go pick up my grandson from daycare! I carefully watched the skies as I drove through torrential rains to pick him up. By the time I was almost home the skies began to clear!
