Although SMSD has not announced the last day of school yet it looks as if school will be out the week of May 23rd-27th in which we will provide all-day programming here at Trailwood. If your child attends on a day they are not normally scheduled there is a $20 charge. The week of May 30th-June 3rd, JCPRD will NOT provide programming so we can train our summer camp staff and prep our programs. There is an option to enroll your child in outdoor camps that week as they are offered on a week-by-week basis. Indoor summer camps begin June 6th-July 29th. any ?? just ask me :)
Spring Break was great! Check out these pics!
The Basketball players from LSUS: The Pilots
The team came to Broadmoor and taught the kids about character and leadership. They also signed autographs, played basketball with the kids and they got to see them at the game at Municipal Auditorium. They taught the kids these 11 words for success:
"Yes Ma'am," " No Ma'am," Yes Sir", " No Sir," "Please," Thank you,"
Good Times at JCPRD!

THE THEATRE IN THE PARK
7710 RENNER ROAD
SHAWNEE, KS
JCPRD's Children Service's Trucks and Big Rigs
Have you ever wondered what the inside of that big rig or tractor looks like? Do you have a child who LOVES trucks? Bring them out to the parking lot of The Theatre in the Park, located in beautiful Shawnee Mission Park, to explore trucks, tractors, construction, and city vehicles up close. Crawl, climb, and sit in the driver's seat and talk with the real life operators of these vehicles. We also feature the tow truck character from the animation movie: Cars, as well as many other kids favorites.
Benefiting Special Olympics & Special Populations
Admission to this four-hour event is free, but a donation of $10 per participant vehicle is suggested at the gate. All proceeds will benefit the JCPRD Special Olympics and Special Populations Department.
Program Director: Kelly Griffin
Mission Statement: Developing health and happiness in our community's children through safe, diverse, and character-building experiences.
This will be my third year at Trailwood with JCPRD! I Absolutely love my job and I love these kiddos! I love that I get to teach them about kindness, tolerance and acceptance and my personal favorite....gratitude and giving back to others! I have worked with kiddos since I was one many.... many years ago. I earned a Master's Degree in Elementary Education In 2011 at Rockhurst University. My undergrad was at K-State so Go Cats! On the side I worked in animal rescue and I eat a lot of spicy foods ;-) looking forward to a great school year!
