2011 Phoenix Summer Program has ended!!

The Salvation Army Phoenix Summer Program has finished for the 2011 year. The program started onJuly 5, 2011 through August 12, 2011. The children had the chance to get together for 6 weeks and have some fun. We had 64 children that participated in the program this year. The children went on two special field trips this year. The children went to the Rochester Museum of Play and SeaBreeze. The children seem to enjoy their time with the program and have been an encouragement for many people. We want to thank the staff and volunteers for all of their help through the 6 weeks.
