Bacoa’s ‘A Day Out’ program celebrates love of baseball
On Aug. 3, Bacoa staff, volunteers and “A Day Out” program participants came dressed in their favorite Cubs gear to enjoy a ballpark lunch of hot dogs, popcorn and root beer while watching videos of old Cubs games. The “A Day Out” program, run by local nonprofit Bacoa, empowers individuals with dementia through strength-based activities like music therapy, arts and crafts, and comfort animals.
