Testimonial
“It was great for me to be on being a young person in the community, I learned a lot about the workings of Parkway and had a lot of contact with individuals. I’d highly recommend to young people to find a community club or board to be a member of to support your local community and make connections!”
– Jordan Henkle, Past LBCF Treasurer
