It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood on Saturday, June 22, 2024 inside Inspire Academy for BE MY NEIGHBOR DAY 2024!

The free family event included an appearance by none other than DANIEL TIGER, star of DANIEL TIGER’S NEIGHBORHOOD on PBS KIDS.

At the heart of this event is the importance of being neighborly. So why not learn about some of our community’s greatest neighbors?

A map led children through the streets of a very special neighborhood, where they met people from community centers, arts organizations, charity groups and much more. At each booth, kids were able to participate in fun activities, many designed to show the importance of being a good neighbor.

Parents and caregivers discovered ways to give back, from volunteer opportunities to support local arts and culture. Once the maps were completed, kids claimed their Good Neighbor awards!

If you need an accommodation to fully participate in this event, please contact Accessibility.BSPM@nullbsu.edu.
