It was another amazing 21 Club Celebration for the Bridges to Independence grads today! We celebrated Thomas and Myles completing the program, rocked out to Thomas' drum solo, got in some good belly laughs at Jackson's comedy routine, was mesmerized by Kayley's magic show, rode the crazy train, and enjoyed a sing a long (always a crowd favorite).

Thank you to ALL who helped pull this year's celebration off. Without your donations, time, and support we wouldn't have been able to do it. You're simply the best!

Congratulations Thomas and Myles!!
