Some Senior Youth Fun Coming Our Way:
2/19 Ice Caves! Randy Jennings and Robin Ahearn will both participate and be drivers on this fun adventure! We’ll begin with a 9 am meetup at the church–anybody who doesn’t already have snowshoes, yak tracks, or ice skates can get fitted for some equipment. Everybody will need to bring their own lunch and a water bottle. Permission slips will be required and were emailed last night. Dress in warm layers! Less than 2-hr drive to the trail head. We’ll hike from the trail head to the caves, hang out at the caves for an hour or two, have our lunches, head back down to the trail head, and return to Schenectady around 4 o’clock. Very limited parking at the trail head, so not practical for each family to drive separately, so participants must be masked and vaccinated and willing to ride share. Please RSVP by Wednesday, 2/16, at 9 pm so we know who’s interested in the trip and who wants to borrow snowshoes, ice skates etc. Contact Director of Lifespan Religious Education Robin Ahearn at dlre@uuschenectady.org with questions.
2/24: 7th-12th Grade Game Night from 7-8:30! We’ll be joined by the 7th and 8th graders and will share some fun online games. Any special requests?!
3/6:  Macrame Plant Hangers! We’ll spend our regular meeting time (may be slightly extended!) doing a quick check in and then we’ll work together making some super cool macrame plant hangers! Please RSVP by 2/27 so we can make sure you get supplies!
