Eight Waves, a nonprofit foundation in Winter Garden has recently moved from its previous space at the West Orange Dream Center to the First United Methodist Church of Winter Garden at 125 N. Lakeview Ave., Winter Garden

On Facebook, Eight Waves said its team has been looking for a new space to meet the needs of all their students.

This includes room for every age group, storage, safe and secure outdoor areas for play and more.

After a year of search, they reached a rental agreement with First United Methodist Church, a central location that keeps all existing families at Eight Waves close, while increasing its proximity to Dillard Street Elementary School and Lakeview Middle School.

Eight Waves said the best part about this new location is a fenced-in playground and a full-sized basketball court for the kids.

Its team will continue to offer the programs that boost literacy, build confidence and support personal growth to students.
