Ice Skating with the Knights of Columbus

BFLF had a blast ice skating. All went out and tried. Just a couple took their skates off. Most stayed on the ice for the whole block of time, wishing for more time. Remember, we all didnt learn to walk in one day, it took time, practice and help. Same with skating. Thank you to McKayla and her friends for setting up a little fun on the ice. A little obstacle course and jump over, was a great idea. You will one day make a great mentor yourself. Thank you to the Knights of Columbus for providing the food and sponsoring the rink time.
