Wednesday, June 10, 2020
Welcome to issue #56 of Club at Home! Every day, we share content that brings Club programs, traditions, and staff into the homes of members. Our goal is to provide the same fun and educational activities to our Club members and families, even while Clubs are physically closed.
Today, we check in with staff from our Clubs who share different activities for members across all age groups, including Wordy Wednesday, fun with art, and a virtual town hall on standing up to racism.
Also, there will be FREE COVID-19 TESTING today (6/10) and tomorrow (6/11) at Washington Park Mall in Roxbury. Learn more>>

For this week’s Wordy Wednesday activity, Braidie is asking everyone to think about what friendship means to them by writing a friendship recipe. A friendship recipe is a list of “ingredients” that make a good friend. See below for an example and make your own!
For all ages.
