GiGi’s Playhouse Canton Youth Board

Youth Board Bios

Sierra Coon, Youth Board Facilitator

In 2022, Sierra kicked off the Generation G Youth Board at GiGi’s Playhouse Canton, where she encourages middle and high school students to get involved, serving as the Youth Board Facilitator. Sierra was drawn to GiGi’s Playhouse because she believes in the Generation G mission to be accepting, generous and kind. If Sierra could wish one thing for GiGi’s Playhouse beyond monetary restrictions, she would wish for building ownership/free rent!

Abigail Fourmann, Co-President

Walsh Jesuit, Grade 12

I am a senior at Walsh Jesuit High School. I am a member of the National Honors Society. I joined the Youth Board in January when it first started, and I am Co-President. I also tutor a boy and girl in math at GiGi's. I started volunteering at GiGi's because my younger brother, Michael, has Down syndrome and I wanted to be more involved in a bigger community of people with all ages.

Tori Robinson, Co-President

Walsh Jesuit, Grade 12

Inside the playhouse, I am a math tutor and a Co-President of the Youth Board! Outside of the playhouse I am babysitting, hanging out with friends, or traveling!

Kyra Fraedrich, Marketing Chair

Jackson High School, Grade 12

At GiGi's I volunteer for the GiGi's Kitchen Program; I love helping the participants learn new skills in the kitchen that they can take into their everyday lives. I am also a literacy tutor for two students; I love helping the participants learn new reading and phonics skills. Outside of GiGi's I am a babysitter as well as a dog sitter. In the fall of 2023, I will be attending Bowling Green State University for Special Education!

Adison Wierzbicki, Volunteer Liaison

Jackson High School, Grade 11

I have been volunteering at GiGi’s since about last spring. I am the volunteer chair of the Youth Board and I usually like to assist with a few classes each month like Destination Discovery, LMNOP, Leaps and Bounds, and more! Outside of GiGi’s, I volunteer at my church watching the 4/5 year olds and I am also involved in our student ministries! I enjoy running and I am on my school’s track and cross-country team! Also, a fun fact about me would be that my favorite flavor of ice cream is cookie dough.

My interests include writing, sewing, swimming, hanging out with friends, and shopping. Another activity I participate in is Speech and Debate. Additionally, I am in my school’s JAGS program. Some of the volunteering I have done at GiGi’s is helping with the car wash, and I made a playlist for the Memorial Day Parade and GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge.

June Price, Member

Lake High School, Grade 10

My name is June and I am a member of the GiGi’s Playhouse Youth Board and I am also a volunteer at GiGi’s. One of my most favorite things to do is run! I do cross country and track and I love to stay physically active. Spending time with my family by doing things like playing board games or going out to dinner with them is also really important to me. My friends are a huge part of my life because they always find a way to make me laugh and have a fun time. At GiGi’s Playhouse, I absolutely love getting the opportunity to work with the younger kids because they are all so playful and energetic. At the moment, I am involved with Destination Discovery and I used to go to Leaps and Bounds during the summer months. I started at GiGi’s Playhouse in the Spring of 2022!

Ava Weirtz, Member

I am a student at Jackson High School. Our family has been going to GiGi’s since it first opened.  I volunteer in the Leaps & Bounds and LMNOP programs because I love working with the little ones! I love to crochet, sew, play with my dogs, and babysit in my free time. I’m on the track team at my school. I volunteer at the pregnancy center, and I am in the Bear Hugs club at Jackson High School. I am so grateful for GiGi’s Playhouse because so many people I care about benefit from it, including my sister, Brenna, who has Down syndrome.
