Blue Heron Programs Team Outing! 🤩
Our team had a spell-tacular night out at Drake’s Barn in Sacramento for a special Halloween showing of Hocus Pocus! 🧙‍♀️
We enjoyed good company, tasty pizza, and roasted marshmallows for the perfect s’mores by the fire. 🍫 It was the perfect way to celebrate the season and spend time together outside of work!

Halloween Spirit Week Recap! 👻🎃
Last week our crew got into the spooky spirit and had some fun dressing up all week long! 🥳
Take a look at our dress up days:
Monday – Crazy Hat Day!
The wackier the hat, the better! Showing off creative (and maybe creepy) headgear!
Tuesday – Dress Like Your Favorite Animal!
Whether a cute kitten, a wild lion, or a mysterious owl, we got to see all of our spirit animals!
Wednesday – Wear Pink!
It was a pink party! Rockin our favorite shades of pink from head to toe!
Thursday – Dress Like Your EC — It’s your time to shine as your EC — twinning is winning!
Friday – Gaggle Games & Halloween Costumes!
To wrap up our Spirit Week we had some friendly competition and showed up with our best Halloween look!
Another great Halloween with so much spirit from our participants and team! ✨
