Special Events
Did you know that the WAWM RCS Department is working with the Easter Bunny this year to bring COVID-safe alternative events to our community?
You've Been "Egged!"
"Egged" started on Monday, March 29th and will end on Friday, April 2nd. It's not your traditional "egging," it's one your family would enjoy! The WAWM RCS Department and the Easter Bunny traveled to homes in the WAWM community and provided them with their very own Easter Egg Hunt at their homes.
A huge THANK YOU to all the WAWM RCS team members and the Community-Based Transition Program who helped stuff eggs and help create these awesome "You've Been Egged" yard signs.
Easter Scrambler
Looking for another fun, family event to celebrate the holiday? Come to Nathan Hale High School on Saturday, April 3rd for our very first Easter Scrambler from 10 am - 12pm.

The Easter Bunny will be at the event, ready to smile with you and your family. Limited spots are still available for this FREE event. Pre-registration is required. Register online at wawmrec.com. Don't be late for this great event!
