A great day for everyone regardless of level of ability
Funfest, Richmond Community Services’ annual festival on June 17th, now in its 28th year, looked like any other. Festival goers from all over Westchester lined up for barbeque, ice cream and snow cones. They played lawn bowling, dressed up and posed for glamour photos, participated in competitive races, darted under a giant parachute, made spin art, had their portrait sketched, and listened to live entertainment.
LaToya Hopkins, a Residential Habilitation Supervisor with Richmond Community Services, has received the Annual Excellence Award for Outstanding Front-line Supervisor by NY
SACRA, the New York State Association of Community and Residential Agencies, the state’s leading advocate for people who have developmental disabilities and the organizations that support them. She was recognized at the Annual NYSACRA Conference.
The excitement is building for Funfest on June 5th. Richmond Community Services is thrilled to announce that TD Bank is our Flagship Sponsor.
With Funfest 2011 we will mark 28 years of celebrating our differing abilities. Funfest is an exciting day for individuals with significant intellectual and physical disabilities to enjoy an array of outdoor activities together with family and friends, including a barbeque picnic, sports, games, arts, and entertainment.
