Matching Party (First Activity):
Our first activity, the Matching Party, was a great opportunity for our Buddies to meet and interact with their Peer and Co-Peer Buddies.
The purpose of the Matching party is to get to know each other, so we played variety of 'getting-to-know-you activities.' One of these activities was the Skittles game. Everyone was given a small bag of Skittles and before they ate a Skittle they had to answer a question which corresponded to the color of the Skittle.
Brad Kolar was the DJ for the night, and Alayna-Appino was our photographer.

Barnaby's Pizza Party (Second Activity):
Our second event was the Barnaby's Pizza Party on Tuesday, November 5th. Having an event at Barnaby's Pizzeria has become a Best Buddies tradition, and is a favorite amongst the Buddies and Peer Buddies. The pizza is great, and the owner, Ken Duke, has always been very accommodating. Kelly O'Brien and Martha Szabo were our photographers.
