||| FROM LENA KASSA for ORCAS SENIOR CENTER |||
In December, Orcas Senior Center, along with members of the Art with Carla class, showcased their creativity at the Rosario Resort & Spa Festival of Trees. Participating local nonprofits adorned trees in the historic mansion, inviting the public to marvel at their designs and vote for their favorite.
Orcas Senior Center’s tree, decorated with handmade paper flowers by Karen Johnston and artistic contributions from Carla Stanley’s class, dazzled attendees. The event raised over $1600, with Orcas Senior Center securing the second spot. The generous support from the community and Rosario Resort & Spa ensured the Orcas Senior Center received $405 in donations.
Thank you to everyone that helped make this event a success and thank you Rosario Resort and Spa for hosting such a festive event!
