Participant Best of All: Fantastic Friends Ben and Jared

Ben and Jared have been to every Fantastic Friends since it started in October. They were particularly excited when we moved from monthly programs to weekly sessions. The first session was Wii sports. Ben and Jared worked well together as a team, they supported one another and took turns. Each time Ben went up and threw a strike in Wii bowling Jared would give a loud cheer. Ben threw strike after strike ending with a TURKEY and each time Jared’s cheers would get louder and louder. The friendship developing between these two is something to see.
Ben and Jared have also come along with their social skills in that they are actively seeking out opportunities to engage in conversation. We are so proud of our Fantastic Friends participants!!! To sign up for Fantastic Friends go to: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/904094ca8a92ea02-winter1
