 Are you a member of UCP Family Support Department? Have you been eagerly awaiting our next OMSI Play Lab?
We’re excited to announce our summer Play Lab date:
Each Play Lab includes an hour-long, hands-on, family-centered STEM program, followed by unstructured play time at OMSI. Every participating family will receive a free year-long family membership to OMSI! NOTES:
 Reminder! Tomorrow is UCP Oregon's Family Support Group meeting.
The meeting will be held on April 13, at 6:30PM, via Zoom.  Did you know that one of the families in UCP's Family Support Department have a goat farm? It's Fraga Farm, about a 45-minute drive from Portland.
The owners have invited all the families in UCP's Family Support Department to the farm for a day of hanging out with their newborn baby goats! Participants will get to get up close and personal with the baby goats (“kids”), including cuddles and bottle feeding. The event will be held on March 5th. We want to extend a huge thank you to Fraga Farm, especially the hosts, Elisabeth Bueschen-Monahan (the Herd Manager) and Steve Monahan (the Cheesemaker) for creating this awesome opportunity for our families!  Save the date! The 2023 Family Support Conference will be held November 3rd & 4th, 2023.
We are excited to announce that we are holding our Family Support Conference on November 3-4, 2023! The Conference is an incredible resource for families who are raising children with cerebral palsy. It’s the only event like it in the Pacific Northwest! Attendees get the chance to learn from other parents, other adults and children who experience disabilities, medical professionals, and disability-related vendors. As one attendee wrote, “I have learned more about CP within this conference than I have since my son was born. I can’t WAIT for the next conference!” The Conference will be held at the Wilsonville Holiday Inn. Check out these pics from yesterday, which was "Day One" of UCP Oregon's Family Support Annual Toy Giveaway!
The event continues today. Learn more here. Oooh! What a cool video.
Eighteen families from UCP's Family Support Department joined us for the Cinnamon Bear Breakfast cruise on Saturday, December 17th. It was a beautiful day filled with holiday joy!  Happy December from UCP Oregon's Family Support Department!
We're excited to announce the 2022 Annual Toy Giveaway. The event will be held on December 21 and 22, from 10am-4pm. The event is for families who are raising children who experience cerebral palsy or a related disability. The event will be held indoors this year (instead of in the parking lot like the last two years). However, we will be taking COVID precautions to protect our staff, families and customers. We'll have lots of toys to choose from, holiday gift bags so you can hide the toy if needed as you leave the building, and cookies and hot chocolate for you to take with you. We can't wait to see you!  We are excited to announce that UCP Oregon’s popular iFly Event is back!
This event gives kids in our Family Support Department the chance to experience indoor skydiving in a fun and safe indoor environment, with assistance from iFly’s trained professionals. All ability levels are welcome, but you must RSVP to participate. The event will be held on Sunday, November 20, 2022, from 4-7pm.  We're excited to announce that we're forming a group from UCP Family Support to attend the OMSI Play Labs.
OMSI Play Labs are incredibly fun! These free events are designed for children aged 0-6. OMSI is “offering the availability of free memberships” (wow!) and snacks to participants. |
