Boys & Girls Club of the Wausau Area

HIGH TEA 2024: The theme for Session 1 of our High Tea 2024 empowerment series was “I Am Worthy." Club girls explored how to identify and express that they are unique, important and deserving with an empowerment session that included journaling, creating compliment cards, and other mindfulness activities, led by Friends of the Club Wendy Schneck Furrer, Kayla Furrer and Nicole Dietrich Lipowski. Reserve your table for our High Tea Luncheon on Thursday, August 8 to celebrate the accomplishments of our Club Members! https://lnkd.in/gcDDVu53

CELEBRITY CHAT: Thank you to Jodi Gruhn from County Materials for visiting the Club! Jodi taught Members about the work that County Materials does and about the different types of equipment that are used there. On the practical side, teens learned how cement is made and were encouraged to continue learning and exploring so that they may find out what they love to do. #GreatFuturesStartHere
