We had 100 FAVARH residents participate, along with about 40 FAVARH staff and about 30 Rotarians. (Simsbury Granby and Avon Canton clubs). Every FAVARH resident gets gifts from Santa from their wish list. We have heard such wonderful feedback regarding the party! Everyone seemed to have a great time. Thank you to Bryan Devoe and Fitzgerald's Foods for donating all the delicious meals. Thank you Rotarians for donating gifts and your time!
