Big thank-you to the UMaine Men’s Hockey Team and Bananas the Black Bear for joining us at JFDS today during lunch!

Our lunch was BANANAS! The hockey team dropped in for a game of dodgeball, brought the energy, and even answered questions about their recent season and school majors. We loved having you here. Thanks for making today’s lunch one to remember!
