A few individuals in the Intermittent CILA Program had zip lining on their bucket list, so we took a trip to Shawnee Bluffs Canopy Tour to make it happen! The group had an incredible time experiencing the beautiful views, conquering fears, and encouraging one another throughout the adventure. It was truly inspiring to see the teamwork and support shine.

Haunted Hayride Fun ๐ŸŽƒ

Community Day Service participants were invited to Del and Diana Althoffโ€™s home for a spooktacular haunted hayride. Afterward, everyone made their way down to their pond to feed the catfish. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the outdoors, good company, and a little fall fun.

Weโ€™re very thankful to the Althoffs for the invitation and for making it such a special day! ๐Ÿ’™

A few of the guys recently had a trip to remember! ๐ŸฆŒ๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŽณ

Their adventure included exploring and lodging at Wildlife Prairie Park in Hanna City, visiting the Peoria Riverfront Museum, enjoying great meals at Khaki Jacks and Dog Haus Biergarten Peoria, and even fit in some bowling and plenty of smiles along the way.

It was a wonderful opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and enjoy new experiences, all without leaving Illinois! ๐ŸŒพ

๐Ÿšโœจ The Intermittent CILA group had an unforgettable day at the Covered Bridge Festival in Indiana! After exploring the sights and enjoying the festivities, they decided to try something completely new; a helicopter ride!

Everyone felt a few butterflies at first, but once they lifted off, excitement took over. The views were incredible, and it quickly became one of the highlights of the trip! ๐ŸŒ‰๐Ÿ’š

The Intermittent CILA group had an unforgettable time on their annual camping trip to Shawnee Pines Lodging in southern Illinois! ๐ŸŒฒโœจ

The smiles in these photos say it all. They filled the days with hiking, side-by-side rides, rock painting to spread joy, swimming, fishing, kayaking, games, sโ€™mores, deer spotting, and plenty of laughter. And as always, the food, hospitality, and time together made the trip a resounding success.

A heartfelt thank you to Thad and Tommi Jurgens and friends for opening up their beautiful property and making CSS feel so welcome year after year. Itโ€™s truly amazing to see so many people come together to make this trip special for the Intermittent CILA group and create memories that will last a lifetime. ๐Ÿ’™

If youโ€™re ever looking for a getaway where you can relax, explore, and take in the beauty of southern Illinois, we canโ€™t recommend Shawnee Pines Lodging in Golconda, IL enough!
