Have you ever felt burnt out or overwhelmed by everything life has thrown at you? Ever needed a break from the same routine to bring some excitement and fun back to your everyday life? No matter your circumstance, everyone deserves the opportunity to relax and have a day of fun, and that is exactly what we did at The Baltimore Station. Staff members, lead by resident attendant Aaron Evans, worked together on a planning committee to take ideas and input from clients to plan the first ever Baltimore Station Free Flow Day!
We kicked off the fun with a lunch, bringing clients and staff together from both of our facilities to sit around the table and enjoy each other’s company. We do not often have an opportunity to simply relax and remember good times, but it was a great way to give everyone the space to be themselves and be present with one another. We then spent the next couple of hours playing card games, competing in chess, and playing a softball game. A special thank you to Loyola Blakefield for bringing students to join the fun and run the field bases with us.
Laughs were heard, prizes were won, and a special giveaway basket was even passed out. Clients and staff had a great time welcoming the summer and letting go of stress, learning that even a regular Tuesday afternoon can bring enough good times and fun memories to last a lifetime.
