Sweet, Sweet Summertime!
What an unforgettable day at Summerfest! The joy and laughter echoed through the air as youth and families came together to enjoy a special day of outdoor games, swimming, sweet treats, music and dancing, face painting and so much more. With a record turnout of youth and families, this event was a resounding success, made possible by the support of our incredible sponsors, Certilman Balin & Ernst Young. Thank you for making this day one to remember!
A special thanks to our DJ, DJ Barry Blends, Stop & Shop for their beverage donation & Jeanie Ritter for face painting.
Overheard from Happy Parents:
“I haven’t seen him smile like this in so long.”
“I never would have been able to take them somewhere like this, it’s amazing.”
