Our C**n Rapids Life Enrichment crew combined their love of books with a fun career skills project! 📚

Since many enjoy reading both in Rise C**n Rapids' little library and during their outings to the public library, they created their own pressed‑flower bookmarks. 🌼

During this activity, they explored production‑line skills, teamwork, and even micro‑business concepts, and everyone got to take home a bookmark to use for their next read.
