Our tour guide was our very own PABSE member L Nikki Hill!

What a wonderful experience for our educators! 🤎🖤❤️💚

On September 21st PABSE members met up at Park&Rec DTSP for the first meet and greet of the new school year. We were so excited to see and fellowship with one another. What a great kick-off to the new school year!

Thank you to the staff at Park & Rec for being so wonderful. We had a great time and we will be back for sure!
