Amy talks about 5 fun things to do: “My family moved to a new town six years ago and had a hard time finding people. Last year, I was inspired by CoJ and was able to get to know parents in my neighborhood by holding a cookie exchange. The party was a success and many of them became my best friends. We had our second annual cookie exchange tonight and twice as many people showed up (even in a snowstorm). My heart is so full. We appreciate CoJ’s offer and highly recommend hosting them.”

As she walked into the photo line, the employee leaned over and told me that one of the things he found fascinating about the job was that *all* teenagers did it!
