Guidebooks are moving like hotcakes out of their boxes and into the hands of
families across the Omaha area. We have some great opportunities ahead to
clear out the remaining books and turn even more families into
adventurers. HIP Kids needs your help in registering families for the
guidebooks on the following days. We are hoping to have two people for
each shift listed below. For more information or to sign up to join us,
please contact Michelle
