At Monday’s town council meeting, Rebekah Hock, Michael Adams and David Quinn and a Canadian goose invited everyone to jump into the Bay this Saturday. Yes, into the Bay, November 12.
But they are goosebumps for a great cause—to raise funds for Kent Center.
The 10th Annual Goose Bump Jump will kick-off at 9 AM Saturday at Betterton Beach in Betterton. Supporting this event will provide funding for “Wheels of Hope campaign, to get three new buses on the road, opening new opportunities for our community members with developmental disabilities to build skills, develop relationships, and to be physically active.”
Costumes are encouraged, and lunch will follow at Betterton Volunteer Fire Department.
“Kent Center, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that provides highly personalized 24-hour a day services for adults who have a broad spectrum of developmental disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities, autism, cerebral palsy, and/or physical disabilities. Since 1970, the mission of Kent Center has been to ensure the safety and well-being of each family member, treat them with respect and dignity and provide enriching opportunities and choices which will enable them to independently live, work and contribute positively to our community to the greatest extent of their abilities.”
