Happy #AlaskaDay! Today, we celebrate the dynamic mountains, rivers, oceans, valleys, wildlife, greenery, and never-ending landscapes, as well as the vast history of the land. Let’s empower the next generation to explore, learn, and lead with passion in this incredible state.

Snack time = Best time! Providing snack food for our youth that fills them with energy allows for our fun activities to be possible after a long day of school.

It’s hard to watch the seasons change so fast. With termination dust settling on the mountains, it only has us thinking about one thing at program: WINTER ACTIVITIES! And it truly looks like they’re just around the corner!

Some of life's greatest pleasures come from embracing the messiness of the moment. Who doesn't love a messy snack? It's not just about satisfying the tastebuds; it's about creating memories and fostering a sense of adventure with our youth, even in the little things! 👍🍪
