A Garden Of Possibilities...

In May of this year, SUCAP Youth Services, Peace Jam, Healthy Lifestyle La Plata, The Ignacio Teen Center, and several community members embarked on a small and very meaningful journey. The goal of the journey, to ensure that the youth of our community knew how to get their thumbs green!!!




From the building of the raised beds to the planting of the first seeds, watering daily and ensuring that the gardens survived, the youth of our small community have helped to keep this journey going.




Now, the end of the summer is drawing near and their efforts have literally come to fruition. The garden has exploded into a thriving "mess" of vegetation!







To all who contributed in any way, thank you for all your hard work to make the first phase of our community gardens project a major success!!

BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

The Ignacio Teen Center, in conjunction with RSAPP and AmeriCorps Colorado Cares, is hosting a school supplies drive.

For the fall semester 2010, the Ignacio Teen Center will be accepting school supply donations for local area Ignacio youth. The event is one facet of the state wide "Colorado Cares Day".

All supplies are welcome as well as monetary donations for purchasing items. For more information, please feel free to contact the teen center.

Thank you all for your continued support.
