5:30pm-7pm

Boyne City High School

Kick-Off Night is a welcoming evening for caregivers and families to come together, relax, and connect. Here’s what you can look forward to throughout the night.

Kick-Off Night Activities

Community Vendors

Learn about local wellness resources and services that support you and your family. Visit with community vendors and explore what’s available right in your area.


Dinner

Enjoy a shared meal with other caregivers and families. Dinner is a chance to slow down, talk with others who understand your experience, and build a sense of community.


Onsite Childcare

Children are warmly welcomed. Onsite childcare keeps kids engaged in age-appropriate activities while caregivers have space to breathe, connect with others, and focus on meaningful conversation. Ages 2+ please, to ensure our volunteers can practice meaningful engagement with the kiddos!


Review Classes/Workshop Options & Receive Passport

Get a preview of the classes and workshops happening the next day and sign up for the ones that fit your needs. This is a simple way to plan ahead and make the most of your time. You will also receive a Roots of Resilience Passport, which you can use to connect and build new opportunities!


Door Prizes & Giveaways

Throughout the evening, there will be door prizes and small giveaways. You may leave with something extra, simply by being present and enjoying the night together.

Connection Space

A comfortable space for community, discussion, and engagement! We will have different topics to discuss, or bring your own! This can be a space to ask questions, generate ideas for future family-centered events, and share your successes with others.
