HFS Parkour Gym

Robin had an awesome time at the HFS Parkour Gym, where we went with many of the members of our Ninja class at MAHC.  He was the only one who was able to do the entire ring set without stopping and without help.


Robin attended his religious education classes, which included an opportunity to make care packages for homeless and transitional veterans, as a way of honoring their fallen comrades.

I read to Robin:
