FUN AT FIVE
Fun at Five is our after-school program for the children that takes place outside their own neighborhoods. William & Mary students spend time with the kids through sports, arts & crafts, and other activities! The kids range in age from pre-K to 8th grade. Fun at Five takes place on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5:00-6:15. On Wednesdays, we go to Dunning neighborhood and on Thursdays, we go to New Hope neighborhood. Transportation is provided.
Fun at Five volunteers should meet outside the Wesley House, which is at 526 Jamestown Rd across from PBK/Jamestown South. It is between Cary St and Indian Springs Rd right next to the Williamsburg United Methodist Church. We leave at 5:00 sharp so please be on time!

FIELD TRIPS
We take the children on three field trips each semester. Chaperones for field trips consist of Campus Kitchen exec board members and consistent Fun at Five volunteers. Some of our past field trips have been to the Virginia Aviation Museum, Maymont Nature Park, the Williamsburg fire station, a W&M baseball game, and Virginia Commonwealth University. Unfortunately we aren't allowed to host field trips outside of campus anymore, so instead we are planning a Halloween fair on campus this October, and the Tribe Truck Farm will talk about sustainability in the neighborhood in November.
We are always open to field trip ideas, so if you have any suggestions let us know!
