Frankfort Meeting Room

Paws from all the stress that the start of school can bring by visiting with Chief the therapy dog. We will be making stress balls and will also have other calming activities available.

The beginning of school can be a stressful time for children as they have to adjust to new schedules and acclimate to new environments or activities. We would like to provide a stress-free environment to help alleviate some of the mental and physical stress of those first few weeks of school. Come sit with Chief or do one of our other relaxing activities to set your mood and mind back to calm.
