Mark Twain Lake to Host Foster Parent Appreciation Day May 31st

Published May 26, 2014
Mark Twain Lake - Each year foster parents provide a nurturing safe home for foster children.  This is why the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Mark Twain Lake is proud to partner with the 10th Judicial Circuit Children’s Division and the FACT office of Hannibal, MO to host Foster Parent Appreciation Day at the M.W. Boudreaux Memorial Visitor Center on Saturday May 31th from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.  There will be a variety of fun educational opportunities for families to enjoy including: the Missouri Highway Patrol roll-over simulator, a petting zoo courtesy of Heidi’s Lil Ranch of Hunnewell, MO, a jump house, bike safety seminars, water games hosted by the Perry Fire Department, face painting by the Children’s Division staff, and free snow cones for everyone!  

Although the theme is foster families and showing our appreciation for them, the general public is more than welcome to bring the whole family and come out and enjoy the festivities.

The M.W. Boudreaux Memorial Visitor Center is located along Highway J just south of the Clarence Cannon Dam.  If you would like more information please feel free to contact the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers by email at marktwaininfo@usace.army.mil or call 573-565-2112.
