On November 21st, more than 50 Best Buddies participants at the University of Hartford celebrated Thanksgiving with a potluck of gourmet dishes and remarkable friendships.
The BBCT college chapter organized the event to give Buddy Pairs the opportunity to share what they were thankful for this year.
Participants lined the buffet table with their potluck dishes including Thanksgiving must-haves like, turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie as well as an array of other homemade delicacies.
After socializing over food, each chapter member wrote their Best Buddies Thanks on a leaf and posted them to the Thankful Board at the head of the room.
Chapter leaders also announced Buddies, Amy Winer and Diana Barone, as the Buddy Pair of the Month. The chapter ended the event with a game of Indian Chief.
UHart College Buddy Director, Megan Marino, shared Our Thanksgiving potluck was a huge success! There was delicious food, good friends and fun times.
So many people we able to come and hang out including some students from the West Hartford ACHIEVE program which was a real treat. It was a great afternoon! |
