President’s Day was a no school day so we rented out Skateland for 2 hours and had a skate party. It was a lot of fun and I did not break any of my bones or anyone else’s.

We had pizzas and pop and everyone just relaxed and had a good time. It ended up being a pretty peaceful evening.

I am always so proud to see how well the group behaves especially when we take everyone off the Reservation. We have seen, first hand, some of the intolerance that the Yakama sometimes encounter and I am always leery of someone giving a dirty look to our kids. The staff at Skateland were great to work with, though, and played Contemporary Christian Music the entire time. The kids, for their part, followed the rules and didn’t complain about the music.

Few things are as cool as seeing the kids smiling, relaxing, and having fun.

Thanks to all of our supporters who directly make it possible for outings like this happen.
