Held June 17-21, First United Methodist Church of Ormond Beach is celebrating another successful Kids Adventure Week, drawing 130 kids this year.

Children participated in games, dancing, science experiments, crafts and storytelling sessions, according to a press release. The week also culminated in giving back to the community, as the kids raised $1,151.73 for the Ormond Beach Police Department. These funds will help support the purchase of car seats for underprivileged families.

"We are incredibly proud of Kids Adventure Week and the positive impact it has had," said Caitlin Bookwalter, director of Family Ministries at First United in the press release. "The enthusiasm and generosity of the kids has been truly inspiring. We are thrilled to contribute to the Ormond Beach Police Department's efforts to provide essential safety equipment to those in need."

First United extends its gratitude to all the volunteers who supported Kids Adventure Week.
