“How I Roll” By Wes

I used to play soccer – that is how I kick

I used to run track and field –  that is how I sprint

I bowl with St Croix Valley Lumberjacks – that is how I strike

I bowl with special needs adults – that is how I score

I used to golf – that is how I club

I play adapted indoor floor hockey – that is how I stick

I play ice hockey – that is how I skate

I used to horseback ride – that is how I stride

I do and always enjoy swimming – that is how I stroke

I play bocce ball – that is how I pickle

I play basketball – that is how I shoot

I play baseball – that is how I hit and run 

I play football – that is how I catch and defend

My dear Mother

You are my hope

I hope that you

spend time with me

You are my light of day

You make my life special

Family, love and life

You are my angel

“When I’m Older” – Beth

Someday I want to marry someone when 

I’m older

I want to continue to dance

This year I want to have fun on Halloween

“The Call of the Sea” by Wes

The call of the sea is soothing and relaxing

It’s waves really are very engaging

Going over them with a boat

Really is very fun

Swimming through them is very enlightening

My dear Father, you are my big buddy

I hope you spend time with me always

You are my loving father

You are my father to go watch movies at the movie theater

You are a part of my life

He makes me giggle

“Dear God” by Jenny

Dear God

It is hard for me 

to leave Camp Castaway

due to the Covid

I kept it strong

for all around the world

to make a better place

I think about every day

It makes me sad

P.S. I kept it together to stop the Covid

Love Jenny

“Althlete” by Livia

I work two days a week

Feels like I’m an athlete

Coffee car, mocha mondays 

I’m always on my feet

“At the Beach” by Carlie Kothe

I love having fun with my family

I love playing in the ocean waves

I love making sand castles

I love seeing dolphins

I love a sunny day

At the Beach I am Happy!
