It was such a fun time walking through the county fair and seeing the incredible projects created by our TeamMates! ❤️

From photography to sewing, baking, livestock, art, gardening, and so much more, it was inspiring to see the hard work, creativity, and dedication these mentees and mentors poured into their projects.

One of the greatest joys of being part of TeamMates is getting to celebrate our mentees; not only in school, but in all of the places they grow, learn, and shine. I am so proud of all of you!

Congratulations to all of our TeamMates who exhibited projects at the fair. You represented yourselves, your families, and our community so well. I can’t wait to see what you accomplish next! ❤️🤍

What an incredible turnout at the Missouri Valley First Responder Appreciation Event! ❤️🤍💙

First and foremost, thank you to all of our first responders for your dedication, sacrifice, and service to our community. We are so grateful for everything you do each and every day.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our TeamMates Mentoring Program root beer float stand! Whether you grabbed a delicious root beer float or simply stopped to learn more about our program, we loved visiting with so many wonderful community members!

We also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing mentors, mentees, and TeamMates board members who volunteered their time to make the event such a success. Your enthusiasm and willingness to serve our community are what make this program so special.

Finally, thank you to the Missouri Valley Chamber of Commerce for giving us the opportunity to be part of such a fantastic community event. We truly appreciate your support!

A great time was had by all!

Such a special moment celebrating our senior Teammates! ❤️

We were honored to have Teammates Board President Kevin Christensen, along with coordinators Ms. Epperly and Ms. Myler, present our seniors with their medallions as they prepare for this next chapter.

A special congratulations to Samantha, whose mentor was there in person to present her with her Teammates Scholarship! She will be attending the University of South Dakota in Vermillion this fall, and we couldn’t be more proud of all she has accomplished.

These moments are a beautiful reminder of the power of mentorship, support, and community. Wishing all of our seniors continued success as they take on their future adventures! 🎓

What a day at the zoo! 🐒

Our high school Teammates mentees had an incredible opportunity to spend the day with their mentors, exploring, connecting, and making memories that will last a lifetime. It was so special to see so many chapters come together!

A big congratulations to our senior member, Joseph Bertelsen, who was recognized today at the Harper Event Center—we are so proud of you! 🎓

Thank you to all of the mentors who made time to attend. Your presence truly makes a difference.

Favorite quote of the day: “Teammates is truly changing lives.” ♥️

Our Teammates Mentoring chapter enjoyed a fun and relaxed Movie Night with our elementary and middle school students! Mentees and mentors kicked off their shoes, got comfy, and settled in to watch GOAT while enjoying Gatorade, cookies, and of course—plenty of popcorn 🍿

These group experiences create meaningful moments of connection, laughter, and belonging.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our mentors who were able to make it! Your presence truly makes a difference in the lives of these kids. ❤️
