School’s out for the summer, and school-age children at the Jim Dooley Center for Early Learning in Geneva are able to enjoy field trips to experience some of the region’s historic, natural and summertime highlights thanks to the generosity of community donations to the Finger Lakes Health Foundation.
“The kids can look forward to trips to state parks, Seabreeze and other destinations without burdening their parents and guardians with additional costs,” explains Mary Backogiannis, Dooley Center Director. “We are so grateful to all the businesses and community organizations for helping us make special summer memories for our kids!”
