Zoo-Mates Second Event!

Now its time to get some children involved!

Zoo-Mates had its second event of the 2010-2011 program year at the mentees' school, Bond Hill Academy. This event was a laid back Meet & Great that gave the mentors a chance to meet the mentees, to see the school they go to everyday, and to have some fun!

The day started with introductions, and some super fun games including "Ninja!" Look for the championship Ninja game to be posted on the blog soon!

The next activity was for Zoo-Mates young and old to create their personal trail mix! After deciding which favorite snacks in what proportions should be all mixed up, Zoo-Mates enjoyed their own concoctions of healthy yet delicious trail mix.

Then it was on to more games! The mentees played board games and card games with the mentors to get to know one another. New friendships had been forged, and we were all delighted to have been addressed by the Principal of Bond Hill Academy, who gave some inspirational words to all the Zoo-Mates!

Sadly, after the last round of games it was time to say goodbye, til next week!

It was a great afternoon and another successful Zoo-Mates adventure!
