Good Luck, Summer MAC staff!
We have had a successful summer at Mahtomedi Adventure Club (MAC), our school-age care program in Mahtomedi Community Education. We could not do MAC without our great staff made up of Mahtomedi High School students and alumni!
We wish our summer MAC staff all the best as they head back to school this fall. Keep an eye out on our social media as we highlight the staff who make MAC so fun, safe, and successful.
Thank you and good luck, summer MAC staff!
