A valued and long-time partner of the Curley K-8 School, Quest Adventures, is holding it’s Second Annual 5K Walk around Jamaica Pond this Sunday, October 2nd. Please consider participating to help raise money for this very worthy organization. Registration opens at 10 a.m. at the Jamaica Pond Boat House where Pond Street meets the Jamaicaway. The walk will begin at 11 a.m.
Quest Adventures has sponsored the Curley’s trips to St. Croix for several years. Each time, they have given a $5,000 seed grant and 7 months of direction and guidance in organizing, fundraising, and executing the trips.
This past spring, eleven Curley middle school students, together with three teachers and Principal Jeffrey Slater, traveled to Discovery Grove, St. Croix to volunteer at the Christiansted Boys and Girls Club. They cleaned and painted the club building. They also worked with the children (above), helping with homework, teaching sports and leading team building activities and discussions on common teen issues.
You may also register for the Walk online or make a donation.
