Many thanks to all of the HCEA members who visited the residents at Brevillier. We had a wonderful time singing Christmas carols and playing Bingo. A gift was given to each of the 80 residents in Ball Pavilion. This was paid for by the Dress for a Cause held at each of the schools. A special thank you to Brian Gresh for playing the guitar.
