As a Summer BreakSpot Ambassador, your flexibility is crucial! Because the BreakSpot program is free to the community, we do not know in advance how many children will be in attendance. It could be low attendance, or it could be much more children than usual.

We ask that you do not get discouraged if the attendance is low but to just engage with the children who are there. This work makes a difference!
