Volunteer Appreciation Picnic- June
Summer Appreciation Picnic-also known as “Summer Splash” kicks off the summer in a “Big” way. Littles are out of school and the summer temperatures are rising and what better way to celebrate than to have some fun outdoors. With the help of sponsors and donations, we are able to provide Bigs, Littles, and their families with free food, entertainment, and games. Big Brothers Big Sisters also takes the time to recognize our Big of the Year from both our community and site based programs. Its an event full of fun and you definitely do not want to miss one of the biggest parties of the year.
Halloween Spook Out- October
The Halloween Spook Out, hosted by the La Cueva Key Club and Kiwanis, is a favorite among matches. Held at La Cueva High School, the party features carnival style games, including a cupcake walk, ring toss, face painting and more. Chilling screams and endless giggles flow from the Haunted House. The costume contest is a great opportunity for matches to work on creative costumes together and to win fun prizes.
Holidazzle Talent Show- December
The BBBS Holidazzle is an annual, end of the year celebration where matches and their families come together for an afternoon of fun and entertainment. Our 2010 celebration included carnival games and prizes, a raffle, gifts from Santa and also, a talent show where Bigs and Littles showcased a variety of skills and talents.
