Travis Hamonic, New York Islanders defenseman #36, invited Tuesday's Children's Mentoring Program as his guests to 4 games this hockey season. Mentor matches had the special opportunity to sit in Hamonic's seats and meet him after the game! Travis felt a special connection to Tuesday's Children because he lost his father when he was 10 years old. Travis felt like he wanted to give back and connect with children who have experienced a similar loss. A big thank you to Travis Hamonic and the New York Islanders for providing Tuesday's Children with such a meaningful experience.

On March 10^th Tuesday’s Children brought a group children, ages 11-15, to the Sharpe Reservation in Fishkill, NY for an Outward Bound Adventure Retreat. Through a day of fun activities they learned the importance of teamwork, performed trust building activities, practiced leadership skills, and had fun with snow tubing, snowball games and s'mores. They also enjoyed hiking through an animal and nature reservation. There were many special friendships made throughout the day, no one was ready to leave their new friends when the day was over! In the evening the children enjoyed a campfire and s'mores, where they all shared their favorite part of the day:

“My favorite part of the day was when we got to become a flying squirrel.”

“I liked that we got to slide down the hill on tubes as a group.”

“I liked getting to see the animals in the reservation center.”

“It was fun being part of the dog team that pulled the ‘flying squirrel’ in the air.”
