Happy Halloween!

Octoberfest

KADEP celebrated Octoberfest on Tuesday, Oct 23rd!  We dressed in our German garb, danced, ate, and drank.  Thank you to the Paintball Group who donated their time and supplies so we could try our hand at target shooting.  Thank you to our volunteer, Susan and her group for making all the crafty decorations, and thanks to all the staff and participants who helped make Octoberfest super fun!

Welcome KADEP Staff Member, Makena

"I grew up in Lafayette, CO. I attended Colorado State University for four years and graduated with a degree in Health and Exercise Science.  Then I attended Metro State University of Denver to study Therapeutic Recreation.  I completed my internship summer of 2012 at KADEP and luckily for me the internship turned into a job!  I am so happy I found a job that I look forward to coming to everyday. It is really the clients that make this an enjoyable place to be.  Outside of work I enjoy bike riding, swimming, and hiking." 

Welcome Makena!
