A Halloween Party where Grownups had FUN!
Judy Pantoja organizes this terrific Community Service Project for our Club every year. This year was no exception. Judy was joined by her niece and Mead McCabe, Yoli Woodbridge, Carol Brock, Andrea Covre, Sally B, Pat Morris and Catarina Jimenez at the International Kids Fund yesterday. The Rotarians dressed up a little but the best thing were the costumes we brought for the kids. And the candy, and the toys, and the pumpkins to decorate, and the candy, and the pumpkins to put it in, and cupcakes and juice and the candy. You can bet the kids were on a sugar high for the rest of the day!
Twenty children who are awaiting treatment and/or surgery at Jackson's Cancer Center came to the conference room to have a little fun. Judy decorated everything in Halloween colors, she brought a Mickey Mouse Club Video and Halloween songs. The kids had a great time. The Rotarians had an even better time.
This is another fine example of Coral Gables Rotarians AT WORK.
And the next day Judy Pantoja received this really nice "thank you" ....
Dear Judy,
I am sorry to have missed this event on Monday, I heard what a great success it was. On behalf of everyone at IKF’s Wonderfund, we like to thank you for hosting the Halloween party for our children and families. The kids had a wonderful time decorating pumpkins, while having refreshments and eating lots of candies. The Halloween movies and customs were an added treat they truly enjoyed. Your generous gesture goes a long way in the life of these kids. We are truly grateful for your support to our mission. Please extend our appreciation to everyone that made this event possible.
Kind regards,
Niurka Del Valle
