Blaze a Trail

March 11, 2020

Portland Platoon

Event overview

Come out and help us blaze a trail with CarMax and The Portland Trail Blazers at the YMCA SE Child Development Center! The YMCA Southeast Child Development Center (SCDC) is a facility that provides before and after school enrichment, day camps, early childhood development, and adult and children art classes. Children who participate in SCDC’s safe, high-quality enrichment programs are more engaged in school, exhibit better behaviors and achieve higher grades and test scores. With a focus on safety, health, social growth, and academic enhancement, SCDC school enrichment programs help children learn to be their best selves. Come out and work alongside Blaze - the Trail Cat, the BlazerDancers and a surprise appearance from one of your Portland Trailblazers! We will be replacing baseboards, replacing basketball goals, laying mulch, building sandboxes and working to increase the overall ambiance of the school. Everything we do on this project not only helps the students but will also help the children in the community who come here after school. So strap on your boots, grab your gloves and let's do some work!!!

What to Bring

As always, your amazing spirit is definitely needed. But we would also like for you to bring another amazing spirit with you to help us out.
