Thanksgiving is a national holiday celebrated on various dates in the United States, Canada, Grenada, Saint Lucia, and Liberia. It began as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Similarly named festival holidays occur in Germany and Japan. Wikipedia

Tree Donated by
Patrick & Bridget Barrett
​Thank you Barrett family for a fabulous time decorating the tree at Brookfield Zoo! The tree looks great and the students loved making the decorations. The tree will be up until January so there is time to visit with family, especially at night with the lights glowing around the zoo.
One of our students Joshua M participated and his team won 1st place in the (Indiana Elite Fall Shootout soccer tournament). We are very proud of Joshua and celebrate his victory together.

GO JOSHUA!
Native American Indian Heritage Month
America is a vast land of many cultures dating back thousands of years to the original inhabitants of the land. Today, programs, partnerships, and parks preserve and share the stories and heritage of Indigenous people. National Native American Heritage Month is celebrated each year in November. It is a time to celebrate the traditions, languages, and stories of Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and Island communities and ensure their rich histories and contributions continue to thrive with each passing generation. It is also a time to evaluate our pledge to maintain the meaningful partnerships we have with Tribal Nations and renew our commitment to our nation-to-nation relationships as we seek to ensure every community has a future they deserve.
Dates: November 2022
