Week 2
So Many Things to Do
Happy Friday, everyone! Wednesday’s rain was a nice reprieve, and now the sun is back in full force for the forseeable future. By now, the kids have their schedules tattooed on their brains; they are good and tired each night falling asleep the moment their heads hit the pillow, while counting Sally Seahorses in their dreams.
It’s hard to believe that CBSC at one time did not have a concession! What did we ever do?!? With all the acitivities abuzz, our forever hungry stomachs are being fed, and we are thankful for our concession crew for keeping us fueled up – adults & kids alike!
When you’re at the club, check out the community bulletin board to the left of the gates when you come in. There’s always something new to see, so have peek.
Our club gets A LOT of use throughout the summer. Please do your part and throw away any litter in the proper bins (blue, green and black), and enjoy (but don’t touch) the beautiful gardens that surround our facilities. Also parents, remind your children to be respectful of our facilities and message boards. We 💚 CBSC and want to keep it looking as beautiful as day one!
