On Friday, August 20, more than 150 JA volunteers came out for an evening of mini golf at Adventure Golf! This fun outing was our way of saying THANK YOU to the wonderful volunteers who make our mission possible and take the JA message into classrooms every day and celebrate the start of another school year of making an impact. It was also a chance for volunteers to help friends and co-workers to learn about the JA mission and get involved.

Thank you to the sponsors who made it possible for the volunteers and their guests to participate for free, resulting in lots of new classroom signups and new volunteers getting excited about serving students!
