Here’s what’s been going on and what’s ahead for Open Arms Christian Preschool!

This year’s Bike Rodeo fundraiser was a big success! A big thank you to all of you who were able to help! We have collected over $1,200 so far, and there are a few pledges still out there. All fundraising money is used for various things we need in the classroom and on the playground as well as supplies. You all are great!
