GiGi’s Playhouse: In the Heart of Bulldog Country!

As Summer slips into Fall, college football takes center stage. And, as many Iowans pronounce an allegiance to the Hawkeyes or the Cyclones, many participants at GiGi’s Playhouse will be cheering for their hometown Drake Bulldogs. Why?

Because our Fall Intern Tatum Aragon is a proud Drake undergrad, and she’s bringing the Drake Blue, Gray and White with her to GiGi’s! But she’s not the only Bulldog that’s coming, as evidenced by the crew of softball teammates (and member of the Drake Men’s Basketball team!) that she brought to Fantastic Friends this past week – and they all had a blast!

We’re looking forward to having Tatum with us for the next three months to assist with our Fall tutoring program, Community Outreach and other fantastic GiGi’s programs like Fantastic Friends. And we’re delighted to meet more of her Bulldog Sisters and Brothers!

In this photo taken from this past Friday’s edition of Fantastic Friends, are: Cassidy, Tatum, Patrick, Lucy, Joel, Jayme, Natalee, Max and Isiah.
