Heartwarming stories from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Manitowoc County!

_George Mazur and his Little Brother Bryan made a “puzzle box” to display puzzles that Bryan had put together. It is complete with a glass cover and hinges for easy opening and closing.
Please feel free to e mail your match specialist any photos from your time together with your Big or Little. We’d be happy to display it in the newsletter and on the BBBS website.

Packer Game
Little Brother Sam and his Big Brother Leon LeClair got to attend one of the early season games of the Green Bay Packers thanks to the generosity of a Big Brothers Big Sisters supporter who donated tickets. Leon & Sam said they had great seats and the experience will be a lasting memory for both of them. A special thank you goes out to our supporters that donate tickets to these types of events.

High School Musical
Big Sister Darlene Hoffman and her Little Sister Brittany pose in front of the Dare to Dream Theater. As a theater group member, Brittany was cast in their production of Disney's High School Musical performed at the Capital Civic Centre. We understand that Big Sister Darlene made a huge commitment to drive Brittany to the many rehearsal sessions before the big event finally hit the stage at the Capital Civic Centre. Thanks you Darlene for being a great Big Sister and congratulations Brittany for a job well done!

Hooked on a Hobby Kids Fish Derby
Little Brother Colton and Big Brother Tom Kocourek participated in the Hooked on a Hobby Kids Fish Derby held at Long Lake in Manitowoc County in June. A total of 91 children, age 15 and younger participated and a total of 55 fish were caught and released. Fish were registered in four different divisions including Bass, Crappie, Perch, and Bluegill. Colton managed to catch 2 Crappies with his largest measuring 8.75 inches. The fish was large enough for Colton to take 3rd place, winning him a new fish rod and tackle box. Congratulations Colton and Tom for making memories on your fishing adventure.
