Grand Rapids, MI- Summer evokes images of beaches, summer camps, and family vacations to Disney or Cedar Point. Many families living on Grand Rapids' south side are not able to experience these summer staples, but South End Community Outreach Ministries is making sure that they can still celebrate the start of summer with food, fun, and friendship.
On June 23, 2013, families can look forward to SECOM's first annual Summer Celebration From 1 to 3 P.M., families can enjoy free food and activities that are fun for all ages, including cooking demos, crafts, and face painting. In addition, the event will offer a Resource Fair for families to learn about local organizations that provide resources for education, healthy living, home and utility assistance, and employability skills.
The first annual Summer Celebration is made possible by generous support from Spartan Foods, Michigan Turkey, Notions Marketing, Coca-Cola, and other community partners. For more information about SECOM, visit www.secomministries.org or www.facebook.com/secomministries
