pm at the Moorhead Center Mall. This has been a great event that both staff and clients have really
enjoyed. Summer dates are June 8th, July 13th and August 10th

July 30th, August 13th and August 27th. This class may end sometime this summer. We will replace it
with drama club, bingo or another activity that clients would enjoy if it ends before September.
Fun Walk, Run & Roll- This new activity will be a monthly adaptive marathon at the outdoor track
at Townsite Park (near McDonalds). Choose your speed and choose the distance you want to walk, run
or roll. It will be the last Tuesday of the month at 6:00 pm. MCLC will be close a bit early on these days
to give people time to get to the outdoor track. Summer dates are: June 30th, July 28th and August 25th.
