“Imagine RIT” Dazzles our kids!By Louis Shelton.On May 3rd of 2014 we had a special trip to the rit annual experience the future technology extravaganza. This trip consisted of students of the week and the month of April. We had a dedicated parent chaperone her student of the

week and was a great help . The children experienced innovative and creative designs by current rit students and had a blast. Then to top off the day a great sit down meal at CiCi's pizza for a entertaining lunch of laughs and smiles.

Hello everyone, Summertime is approaching again. I am getting ready for summer in the kitchen. I will be going to my summer training class from Foodlink on June 12. Foodlink will also begin classes at Dazzle for

the the Individuals. I will be trying to set up classes on nutrition, so the kids can be busy. I will have more updates in future issues. Have a great and safe summer everyone.

Word from the EditorIt is may, and summer will be here as some of you read this. Dazzle often has different operating hours as the various needs of summer change, and this year is

no exception. As I work on this edition of the dazzling times, events are happening so fast I may not be sure if even I can keep up. But we will do our best to keep you informed. We always try to focus on the positive here at Dazzle, even when things get stressful. It is important to look for the good in people and situations wherever you can. I hope going forward that whatever Challenges arise, there will always be a way where there seeming was no way.

Dazzle is getting ready for our annual Golf challenge, and one positive thing you can do is to tell your friends and neighbors. Perhaps you play Golf yourself, but if not, you may know someone who does. Spread the word, and come out anyway for a fun time with friends of Your

Children!

The Design Center of Rochester is helping us renovate our new Building, which will then accommodate classroom space, while our current classrooms will then become administrative space. The “Dazzlevile” Campus and Schubert Center will need to expand in order to meet the growing needs of our community, and the Design Center is helping that to happen.
