About 50 children and teens who attend the Ricketts Center’s afterschool program enjoyed a holiday party complete with food, fun activities, and gifts on December 17, 2024.
Hosted by Hobart’s Run, the festivities included jewelry and crafts-making, gingerbread house construction, a buffet dinner prepared by Sodexo (The Hill School’s food service provider), and a visit from “Santa,” played by Center Director Randall Hawkins. Gifts were provided for the children by faculty, staff, and students at The Hill School, who selected children’s wish lists from cards provided to the School by Center staff. It was a pleasure bringing joy to these delightful kids!
