Under sunny skies and with smiles all around, Â鶹ÊÓƵapp proudly took part in the annual Bedford Day celebration, bringing together staff, individuals, and community members for a fun-filled day of connection and creativity.
More than 30 members and staff from Â鶹ÊÓƵapp joined in the Bedford Day parade, marching through town alongside local groups and organizations. Their enthusiastic presence was a true reflection of the spirit of community, camaraderie, and commitment that defines the Center’s mission.
The Bedford Day fair buzzed with activity, offering visitors delicious food, local entertainment, and engaging exhibits. At Â鶹ÊÓƵapp’s booth, attendees were welcomed with a variety of free giveaways, including pumpkin scoops, foldable frisbees, bubbles, stress balls, Chapstick, sunglasses, water bottles, and lanyards—something for everyone to enjoy!
A highlight of the booth was a vibrant display of original artwork presented by Meaningful Whole Life, the Center’s signature program that gives participants the chance to pursue interests that helps each one be a more complete person. The art sale drew considerable attention, showcasing the incredible talent and creativity of the program’s artists.
“A special thank you to all of our participants this year,†said Patti Maguire, President and CEO of Â鶹ÊÓƵapp. “And a huge shout out to all of our phenomenal artists who shared their talents with everyone who stopped by our booth.â€
