​Big for a Day 

Plan an activity for the kids on our wait list.  They don’t get to go out with a Big each week and could use a ‘Big for a Day’ to have fun at a BBBS event.  What does it take?  A two-hour activity and 10-15 volunteers.  Plan a field day or board game night.  It’s simple and easy to be a Big for a Day.
