some local businesses and Long Term Care before he left.

In the first week of Oceans of Possibilities, we had 157 kids participate in our programming.
Jennifer from Smokey Hills Share-A-Story kicked off on Monday with a Wild Krats storytime,
each child made a shark headband and received a free book.

On Wednesday Dan Dan the Magic Man came in and dazzled the audience with some
fantastic tricks!

Craft day was on Thursday, between fidget bracelets and fluffy slime, fluffy slime was the
favorite.
