Fun activities for 7- and 8-year-olds

Embers is a place for fun activities for 7- and 8-year-olds. She’ll have a blast with old and new friends by using her imagination, exploring nature, gaining new skills and finding ways to “Lend a Hand” (the Motto) in her community.

Embers usually meet once per week for an hour to 90 minutes.
