RETA’s Mothers’ Club kicked off the 2019-2020 school year this week. Mothers’ Club leader Brandi took some time to introduce herself and lay the ground work for what the year would look like. Following that, the ladies enjoyed a game where they shared more about themselves, including something the others present might not know. One participant shared she’d placed in the top 3 in an international cooking competition when she was younger! Amidst the talking and laughs, there was a great sense of camaraderie. The months ahead are going to be a blast with guest speakers, crafts and cooking.

While the moms got to know each other, their kids had fun, playing games and eating snacks in the childrens’ area, headed up by RETA staff member Rhonda.

RETA's Mothers' Club, a community group for moms with free childcare for infants through pre-k, meets Thursdays weekly during the school year from 9:30-11a at Belmont Mennonite Church in Elkhart.
