Let’s Keep the Momentum Going!

What a great week it’s been!

 

On Thursday, we started the Summer session of GiGiFIT Infant and worked really  hard to make it as fun and purposeful as ever. Our particiants never cease to amaze us when it comes to what they can accomplish in such a short amount of time. We can make progress and learn new things from such a young age and they’ll stick with us for a lifetime!

 

 

 

On Saturday, we had heaps of fun at Leaps and Bounds for our little ones! We had a fitness theme with activities like a relay race, an obstacle course, we played with hula hoops and balance beams, and so much more! This program is always on the move and filled with learning and playing.

 

 

 

Sunday was our Chicagoland 5K, and it was AMAZING! The amount of support, love, and inspiration that was flowing through the Arlington Racetrack was unbelievable. We got to see so many of our amazing participants, their families, and all of their support systems in one place and it was nothing short of wonderful. As a network, we raised so much money, we spread so much awareness, and saw the hard work of all our staff and volunteers come together to put on the event. All of this is for our Playhouses and our purposeful programs, but it’s more importantly for our families! YOU are why we do what we do and it keeps us going. We would be nothing without our amazing families.

Emma and Nora had a blast! We can’t wait to see what other amazing things our families will do!
