Spring Break 2014

The sun is coming out! This week, our youth were able to enjoy some time outside with friends during Spring Break.

Throughout the week, the recreation department planned outings for our youth as they get time off from school. The week started out with a cook-out at Cameron Park where youth and staff spent the afternoon having lunch and playing games. That evening, youth could tumble and roll inside the Zorb Balls at the Boys Ranch gym.

On Wednesday, recreation planned a day trip to Enchanted Rock State Natural Area outside of Fredericksburg for hiking. The rest of the week, youth were able to choose from horse rides at the ranch, bowling, movie nights, arts and crafts, and the Alpine Tower Challenge to keep them busy.

“Our goal over Spring Break is to give the students a safe place to engage in a variety of new activities and a chance to interact with their friends and staff in a fun environment,” said Beth Harris, recreation director.
