4th of July Wellness Celebration & Picnic @ Loose Park

Description

Wanting to stay close to home this 4th of July? Want to celebrate Independence Day with some social interaction and patriotism that centers around human freedoms and universal truths....in an informal and relaxed way? Come out to Loose Park and start your day off with our 4th of July picnic! Yoga, Mindfulness kids activities with prizes, a public reading of the Declaration of Independence, and an open conversation to encourage community dialogue and support that we all need right now.

Hosted by KC Wellness Club

The Kids Mindfulness Circle will be ran by Abry Deshong. Abry holds a Masters Degree in Child Development and a Bachelor of Science in Child Psychology. She is a Licensed Child Care Director, has taught preschool, loves working with children of all needs and abilities, and has worked with families for nearly 20 years, 10 of which she has incorporated a mindfulness-based approach to her work.

Bring a picnic basket and lets enjoy time together by caring for ourselves and each other....you deserve it! Come as you are, all are welcome. Donations accepted but not required.
