Barry Boys & Girls Club as their host organization is entered into a raffle to earn a $100 Visa Gift Card. Story Time on Mondays and Fridays at 2:00 PM is a perfect way for parents to earn themselves a short reprieve form providing 24 hour quarantine care.

Elementary School girls are invited to take part in Chat Attack, a free girls empowerment group hosted on bluejeans.com on Fridays at 3:30 PM. Kids can stay in touch with their friends and caring adult mentors as they explore a prearranged activity set designed to build self-esteem and to bring out the “superpowers” that we all possess.
