Pick up more information at the BLAST sign-in table. You can also stream the Mega Verse music through Spotify. Just search for the artist Tommy & Jo Hendricks.

Each week at BLAST kids can earn points to be used at the BLAST store. We have three BLAST stores spread throughout the year. Check the parent info at BLAST registration for the next BLAST Store date.
