The Spring Fling

     This annual event went off with a bang, as usual, on April  27, 2012. Special Tree clients and alumni were invited to a night filled with dinner, dancing, and prize give aways.


     Upon arrival guests photos were taken by the Day Treatment Services staff. They were able to get the photos developed and pass them out. The staff did a wonderful job of getting every client to smile. Each photo was given out in a handmade spring inspired photo card. Eveyone enjoys a photo to remember.


     After having your photo taken, clients were directed to take a seat at a table for dinner to begin. Dinner was served and eaten quickly, so to return to the festivities of the night. Everyone was able to enjoy an array of food while in attendance at the Spring Fling.


    Proceeding dinner was a new addition to the Spring Fling, a NEW Band! They consisted of two guitar players, a piano player, a fiddle playing lead singer, and of course a drummer. They sure did rock the house and got every body up and moving to the music. I hope to see their return at the annual Fall Bash!


     I had the pleasure of standing and dancing to multiple songs throughout the night. This made me feel excited because this was only the second time since my accident that I could stand and dance. I got the pleasure of seeing other clients enjoying this same activity and I could tell that they were just as happy as I was.


     Prizes were given out after the music was played. Names were drawn out of a hat. Each winner was able to recieve their prize at center stage and draw the next winner. I did not get the pleasure of winning and actual prize, however, I still feel like a winner for the oppurtunity to attend.


     This special night would not have been possible without the help of residential managers Debbie J. and Sabina K. Thanks girls for a great night!
