Our House e-newsletter Late Summer 2014 | Page 26

This year, Our House had 22 Summer AmeriCorps VISTAs serving in our youth programs, Learning Center, and operations. Meet them on the following pages as some of them share their favorite memories of their summer of service. 2014 Graduate of Hendrix College, Psychology BA Favorite summer memory: At the end of field trip days, the Orange Team kids would fall asleep on the way back to Our House. On the window, on their neighbor, or on their team leader, they were sound asleep. It always assured me that the kids had a blast, just like we wanted. Creative Writing Major, UALR Favorite summer memory: My favorite memory from this summer was seeing one of the shyest kids in our group come up to me with the biggest smile on her face to tell me how much fun she was having and then run off with the rest of the group, laughing. 6:48
