The last part of our afternoon together will be spent hanging out and engaging in different leisure activities. Activities may include sports, playing board games, or making a craft. If the weather is appropriate, we may go outside so please dress according to the weather! Participants will also decide on various community outings that the group will attend throughout the season.
