Members of the Teachable Moments Adult Social Group met on October 13 at Crumland Farms in Frederick.  This was the third year in a row for the popular outing.  Members navigated the corn maze and participated in the games and activities at the Farm, including pedal go-carts, giant slides, and the corn cannon.  They were also able to select a pumpkin to take home.  The social group supports young adults with developmental disabilities by meeting once each month for a variety of activities and socializing at various locations around the Frederick area.    In the past year they have gone to Adventure Park, shopping and laser tag at the FSK Mall, bowling, and much more.  For information about future outings, please contact Carol Custer at 301-788-6198. 

The Teachable Moments Social Group met on September 29 at the Jefferson Community Center for fun activities, including basketball, kickball, and a Zumba Lesson presented by Katie Glaser-LeClere (www.bodybenders.com).  Katie offers Zumba® classes for all ages and abilities.   For more information about upcoming outings of the group, please contact Carol Custer at 301-788-6198 or carol@custerllc.com.

     On August 20, six members of the Teachable Moments Social Group attended a double-header Keys game.  We got a little wet, but had a great time!

     On August 27, eleven members of the group attended a bowling outing at the Seven Ten Bowling Center in Hagerstown.  The place was great and everyone thought it was worth     the trip up from Frederick.

   The group meets once a month for different activities.  September will be “sports” day.  We will play tennis, basketball, kickball, and participate in a 30-minute Zumba lesson.  In October we will go to a corn maze.  If you are interested in joining the group, please contact Carol Custer at 301-788-6198.
