Rigby Kid Center- Day at Billie- Joe's
Last month we went to a past worker's home where we had a campfire roast for lunch and got to play with puppies. After lunch she took us to her greenhouse where she taught us how to take care of plants. She even gave each participant a plant to pot and take home. We had so much fun!

A New Journeys CDS!
A New Journeys CDS!
Hayley has been associated with Journeys since volunteering as an undergraduate student from BYU-Idaho in 2006. Her volunteer work led to a job and internship at Journeys through 2007. Following a mission to Missouri, Hayley graduated from BYU-Idaho in Recreational Leadership with minors in Psychology and Communications in 2010. After graduation she returned because of her love for the people and work of Journeys, working up as a paraprofessional, scheduler and now a CDS.
Hayley was raised in Rexburg and has always enjoyed the incredible outdoors of Southeastern Idaho, recreational activities and being around people, particularly her nieces and other children. She and her husband Justin were married this past December and they now live in Idaho Falls. She’s excited to have more opportunities to work with everyone at Journeys.
