Outreach hosts Community Literacy Event | CO School for the Deaf & Blind

The CSDB Outreach Department hosted a community literacy event at Flat Acres Farm, in Parker, for the families of Deaf/HH/DB children, from birth to age 8. More than 30 families enjoyed farm activities, including a corn maze, a petting zoo, and a pumpkin patch to pick out their own pumpkins. CSDB provided literacy and language opportunities around the farm and read the book "Barnyard Banter" by Denise Fleming. A variety of farm ASL signs were introduced to families in attendance, also! The Ascent Program sent two Deaf/HH Adult role models to float around the farm and connect with families. Everyone left with smiles, new friends and worn out kids! Thanks for a memorable event! See you on December 4 for the Holiday Party at Bethel Lutheran Church!
