Last month, WPS hosted a Lego Family Engagement night with hot chocolate. Thanks to the Senior Citizens, this event was made possible with all of the Lego kits provided. After building their sets, the kids were able to take their legos home with them! This has become a favorite event for many. The kids were already asking when they could have another Lego building night.
