Picha's Pumpkin Patch





Thank you Picha's Farm for hosting us for the second year in a row. We are grateful that each child received a pumpkin and free admission through the corn maze. Here are some pictures from our experience. And by the way...most of the kids gave their pumpkins names!

Youth Experience Portland

The Whitney Foundation provided an experience for a group of underprivileged youth from Tacoma. Riding a train, looking around Portland's Saturday Market, touring a submarine at OMSI, walking through China Town were a few of the things that filled the day. We just want to say thank you for giving them this opportunity!
