Share Your Month of the Military Child Story

During Month of the Military Child, we want to share your celebration stories. The 4-H Cooking Club at NSA Naples School Age Care program celebrated their Purple Up! Day making homemade purple cupcakes. Not only did the youth learn all about reading recipes and measurements but they had a great time celebrating. Let us know what you're club is doing this month to add to our stories.
