Charleston Park Circle News
February Update:
Chicktime New Braunfels Downtown’s February workshop was absolutely wonderful this evening! The energy was just beautiful!
The youth were treated to Chick Fil A dinner by Mary Sligh- Young ! Such a special treat! Then we played games, laughed, and shared stories!
Our time with the youth at Connections Emergency Shelter may just be a couple hours … once a month …
but we know the impact our time has on thier journey to healing.
January Update:
It’s been hard not getting to see the girls during Covid restrictions… but how grateful we are to have the opportunity to drop off activities until we can get back on campus!
Please reach out if you are curious how you can help now or later!
We just dropped off Vision Board Making Supplies!
December Update:
Here are the gifts for the girls for our December drop off workshop! Each has a basket with a blanket, a facial or eye mask, aromatherapy roll on oil or flower infused coconut oil, lip treatment, a wireless speaker, and either a makeup kit, pedicure mask slippers or argon infused towel to wrap and nourish their hair….and of course a Ruldolph Chocolate or Elf on the Shelf Candy. Special thanks to a client of co-leader , Megan Swatt, who made the Christmas tags!
Here’s hoping to seeing each of you at one of our 2022 workshops !
Merry Christmas!
April Update:
Our April workshop has been dropped off! Oh how we wish we were doing this with the sweet girls… side by side!
Pray with us that the girls and staff are well and that we can have safe workshops in person!
If you would like to donate a craft like this for us to bless the girls at CYDC with …. reach out to us! So many options on amazon that you could mail to us and we will deliver with a special note!
March Update:
Chicktime Charleston Park Circle sent the girls a Finger Labyrinth, they can be ceramic, or molded or drawn out on paper. It is a tool used to help you practice Mindfulness. You simply trace your finger around the path and focus on a positive affirmation, a prayer or nothing at all. The idea is to help train your mind to focus on a single thought and stop being so scattered. Mindfulness has been shown to help with ADHD, Anxiety and Depression. You learn to focus your thoughts on something more positive or to stop your mind from wandering. Each of the girls got a painting and then used bubble paint to outline the path so there was a textured feel to it and they could even follow the path with their eyes closed if they wanted to really try to relax.

October Update:
Chicktime Park Circle & Carolina Youth Development Center had a great Halloween party! Thanks you yo all our volunteers who made it so much more special! 🎃👻🧡
Chicktime Charleston Park Circle was such a great event last night!! Some of the CSU Women’s Basketball Team came out to volunteer….I cant explain in words how much these younger girls needed that interaction with such strong and independent women.
