The 6th Annual FSAA Crab Feed on March 24th was CRABTASTIC! It was a smashing success and raised arecord amount of money for FSAA to advance our activities in the local recovery community. Great fun was had by all 200 folks who braved the rain to attend this sold-out event.
Those currently in The Residence were our guests of honor. The event was a wonderful way to introduce them to the type of fun they can look forward to in sobriety as FSAA members.
To the 42 volunteers who assisted helping to set up, in the kitchen, and then cleaned up afterward: THANK YOU SO MUCH! These events couldn’t happen without our wonderful volunteers being of service.
A big thank you to the many AfterCare groups who very generously prepared baskets for the Silent Auction, one of which contained a beautiful hand-made boat crafted by one of our Alumnus.The “Serenity” came complete with navigation and deck lights, crab nets, remote control, and motor, a fine compliment to our nautical theme for the evening!
