Wyatt – In Honor of The Ball Family
Wyatt is a new child to join our mission and going to ABA therapy at Hopebridge. The Balls have been supportive since day one, but most dont realize that without them, our conglomerate of tents would not exist! The Balls own the majority of the property that we take over year after year and we are blessed to call them friends. Acoustics for Autism is so important to so many, and thanks to the Ball Family, we can continue to thrive!
