First Five Coalition Celebrates Week of the Young Child

As part of the national Week of the Young Child celebrated across the country April 6-12, the Dalton-Whitfield community honored young children and all those who make a difference in children’s lives. The First Five Coalition had several articles included in the newspaper, one of which can be read here. The coalition encouraged local churches, schools, and organizations to publicly honor childcare workers. The group ended the week on April 12 by hosting a public celebration at the local community center that included inflatables and an ice cream social sponsored by the Dalton Parks and Recreation department. Pictures of the event can be viewed on our Facebook page here.
