How We Started
Friends R Fun Child Development Center in Summersville had a humble beginning 35 years ago in a basement room with toys brought from volunteers’ homes or donated by the community.But as Director Judy Olson points out, they wanted to help Nicholas County by fulfilling a need and making a difference in their community. With no child care centers in the county at all before they opened in 1986, they certainly have filled a void.
