Vision Casting - Looking to a Bright Future
Our annual board meeting was held recently, virtually. We were excited to share with our board members a recap of 2020 and all of the ways On River Time experienced growth in spite of a year of hardship.
We enter 2021 with hope and optimism as we plan a safe return to our On River Time camps. We're also excited to grow our new year-round Life Skills programming with a retreat held for the college-age students who have aged out of their children's homes. Our goal is to help “pack their suitcases” with life lessons that will prepare them for future success as independent adults.
We are grateful to our board members from across the country who gathered virtually with us on Zoom for our annual board meeting.
