Healthy Family Programs
     
 

 

Pend Oreille County Extension sponsors or participates in several major Healthy Family programs:

Missoula Children's Theatre is a week-long theater arts residency in which 55 to 65 area children learn to act, dance, sing, and present two professional-quality performances of an original musical. MCT occurs annually in October. Auditions are open to young people who are privately, publicly, or home schooled.

The 2009 production was
"The Amazing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe"

The production this year was very well received and was a wonderful experience for everyone involved! A special thank you to all the young actors who were in the show (you were awesome), the families that support them, and to these community MCT sponsors:

Pend Oreille Players Association, Stimson Lumber, Spokane Teacher's Credit Union, Newport/Oldtown Rotary Club, Doug Lambarth-Attorney,
Pend Oreille Valley Foundation, Tigger's Treehouse Childcare, and Newport Eagles Auxiliary.

Please stay tuned for next year's production information!

Food $ense is a federally-funded program for Nutrition Education in Pend Oreille schools. Extension personnel teach gardening-based nutrition in all Elementary grades in Newport, Cusick, and Selkirk school districts as well as a summer program with the Kalispel Tribe. Please go to the web page for Food $ense for more information about this program.

Children Cope With Divorce is an educational class for divorcing or separating parents with minor children. This class is offered once per month in either Newport or Colville. The class advocates for children and is not ministry, counseling, or therapy. The fee for this class is $30 per person.
