Attention College Bigs!

Just a reminder....as you are winding down with your last weeks in Winston-Salem before summer remember to contact your case manager with summer plans! Also remember to talk to your Little about being gone for so long. Try to prepare them and give them as much notice as you can that you will be gone for an extended period of time. If possible try to keep in touch by phone, letters or email while you are away. If you are graduating this is especially hard for your Little so try to plan a special activity for the two of you on your last visit. Maybe decorate picture frames with a picture of the two of you in it or have a special dinner. If you can find a friend to take over your match after you leave that is great, so then your Little will not have to go back on our wait list. If you have any questions about this process and time of your contact your case manager or reply to this blog!
