Meet Jon, Jake, and Patrick

                  from Southwest House

Jon, Jake, and Patrick live in one of Hiawatha’s homes.  All three of these young men lead very active lives.  Here’s what they wanted you to know about them.

Jon enjoys working Mondays through Fridays on an ABC cleaning crew that cleans Any Time Fitness, People of Hope Church, and Good Shepherd Church.  He finds window cleaning to be very relaxing.  He also stated that he is a positive worker.  One of his goals is to lose weight, which he has been doing by calories and exercising.  He likes exercising with hand weights and doing sit ups and pushups on the exercise ball.  Last year Jon took a trip to Chicago with his mother where he visited an old elementary teacher and went to Six Flags.  Jon recently enjoyed going to the Water Park of America with his housemates and friends from Lincolnshire House.  Jon shared that his hobbies are shopping, being on his computer, and talking on the phone.  Jon attended Disability Day at the Capitol on February 4th (sponsored by ARC) to voice his concern on budget cuts.  He is proud to help out any possible way that he can.
