Wellness Tip: Thankful is an expression of gratitude, while grateful is a way of being. Take a moment and reflect on a person, a place and a thing for which you’re grateful.

Thank you to everyone who turned out to have a great time with us at allcove Beach Cities on October 5! Between the art, music, food and fun all around, the center transformed into a wonderfully creative opportunity to welcome youth in and helped us encourage the importance of fun together.
Did paint get all over? Yep! Were dozens and dozens and dozens of bracelets made? Most definitely! Are we still singing along to the music shared just for covefest? For sure!
Thank you to everyone who partnered with us to make it another epic covefest! We can’t wait to make the next one even better.
