2 SUMMER AT APCH Summer Fun Competitions Build Camaraderie

Summer is an especially magical time at APCH and this year, we introduced the first ever summer fun competitions! Members from all age groups were divided into teams consist- ing of littles, middles and teens. Teams competed for victory in baseball, volleyball, and sand castle building at our beach days and Kids Day at Griffith Park. These activities were yet another opportunity for members to prac- tice REACH (Respect, Empathy, Accountability, Courage and Hope) values and a chance to build relationships with youth of different ages, resulting in greater unity among our members.

In summer 2019, 40 members learned how to surf and our youth went on 75 field trips!
