Earlier this week, we hosted a teen service program where teens got creative by making snuffle mats for the dogs at Mohawk Hudson Humane Society! These handmade enrichment toys will be delivered to the shelter to help keep the dogs entertained and engaged. Thanks to the teens who volunteered for this!!

Jo Ann had a jam-packed weekend with some of our awesome community partners. This group had a great time touring Schuyler Mansion, and we're looking forward to our next off-site excursion to the Albany Hall of Records in November!

Our friends at Carl's Advanced Automotive & Truck Repair Center came by to talk about basic car care and help us feel comfortable and confident walking into any repair shop.

We love having such great community partners! Thank you to the team at Schuyler Mansion and Carl's Advances Automotive!
