On August 25th at Al Moody Park, Big Brothers Big Sisters on Central Oregon (BBBSCO) brought together a community of over 150 people, including Littles and their families, as well as dedicated Bigs and their families. This day was all about celebrating the incredible impact of mentorship, as BBBSCO families united under the summer sun.
BBBSCO treated everyone to dinner and special treats, setting the stage for an event filled with connection and inspiration. Bend Fire and Rescue and the Bend Police Department joined us, creating an opportunity for our Littles to explore their dreams of firefighting and policing. The day was marked by discovery and excitement as young people learned from our local heroes.
This year’s Annual Back to School Picnic was a testament to potential that mentorship brings into the lives of children and their mentors. We thank everyone who participated and contributed to this unforgettable day, strengthening the bonds that make our community shine even brighter. Here’s to the power of mentorship and the promise of brighter futures for all our Littles!
