As another school year comes to a close, we’re reflecting on what an incredible year it has been at The Depot!

From meaningful programs and volunteer opportunities to special events, celebrations, and countless moments of connection, none of it would be possible without the support of our amazing community. Thank you to our students, families, volunteers, sponsors, donors, and partners who help make The Depot such a special place.

To all of our graduates moving up to their next chapter - congratulations! We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see all that you accomplish.

Wishing all of our Depot families a fun, safe, and relaxing summer. Thank you for being part of our community. We look forward to seeing you this fall!

🔎🎭 Congratulations to the members of The Depot’s Middle School Murder Mystery Club on a fantastic Murder Mystery Dinner Party filled with twists, turns, and plenty of surprises!

Over the course of the year, these talented students met weekly to create their characters, develop the storyline, build sets and props, and master their lines. Their hard work, creativity, and teamwork were on full display last night.

A huge thank you to the friends and family who joined us, our wonderful returning 9th-grade helpers, and especially club leader Terry Williams, whose gentle, encouraging guidance helped bring this production to life and kept everyone on track along the way.

We are so proud of all that these students accomplished! 👏🎬🔦

We are so incredibly proud of our Depot Leaders who were recognized as YWCA Young Women of Distinction honorees.

🌟 Congratulations to Gigi Brown, Ella Bryer, Katie Cutler, Abby Goertel, Sydney Johnson, Emily Miller, Samantha Morris, Alexis Procopion, Finley Smith, Rowan Troy, Winnie Wartels, and Tate Wein on this well-deserved recognition!

The Women of Distinction Luncheon honors individuals who lead with purpose, passion, and conviction, and these young women exemplify those qualities through their leadership, service, and commitment to making a difference in our community.

Thank you for sharing your time, talents, and leadership with The Depot and the greater Darien community. Your impact extends far beyond our walls, and we look forward to all you’ll accomplish in the years ahead. 💙✨

Join us for an important community conversation hosted by The Depot SLOD Group featuring Vince Benevento, author of Boys Will Be Men and founder of Causeway Collaborative.

📘 Boys Will Be Men: 8 Lessons for the Lost American Male is a guide for helping young men overcome anxiety, disconnection, and lack of motivation. The book replaces traditional talk therapy with actionable, mentor-based strategies designed to help families build accountability, structure, and purpose in young men’s lives.

This panel discussion will explore the challenges facing boys and young men today — and what parents, mentors, and communities can do to better support the next generation.

📍 The Depot — Darien
📅 May 18
⏰ 7:00 PM

All Darien residents are encouraged to attend.
