A Visit from Jonathan's Place

This past Friday we had a fun event in Flower Mound for the kids from Jonathan's Place, which is an emergency shelter for children here in the Dallas area. We had 8 kids from Jonathan's Place as well as some of our own employee's children join us for the day. We had a couple of Wii games setup, board games, and bean bag toss. We also had a craft project - mostly for the girls - to design their own tiles with paints, stickers, etc. It was even a nice enough day for the boys to go outside and play a little catch with a football. It seemed like everyone enjoyed themselves and the kids from Jonathan's Place were very appreciative of all of the fun and, of course, the great prizes they got to take back to the shelter with them.

Jonathan's Place is located in Garland, TX. If anyone is interested in additional opportunities they have for volunteering please take a look at their website at http://www.jpkids.org/.
