Saturday, June 16, 2018 the Partnership for Children and Families partnered with UW-Extension of Door County to bring block building by way of a “Block Party” to the city’s Kick off to Summer event at Sunset Park. A Block Party offers a unique opportunity for parents and children to build memories with block play; improving a variety of skills in math, physics, early engineering, creativity, social skills, physical skills and more! Learn more here and keep an eye on our calendar or contact Tenley Koehler if you would like to volunteer or want to be informed of upcoming parties.
