"Party in the pods" celebrates 20th anniversary of HGRM

Join us on Sunday, May 2, 2010, 2-5 pm to mark this 20th year milestone!

This fundraising celebration will be held just outside HGRM under a tent and in the storage pods used to keep overflow household goods. The pods will be transformed into welcoming rooms using donated furniture from our facility.

Local decorators will use their creativity and ingenuity to create these rooms.

There will be a $20 entrance fee – in honor of the 20th! To buy tickets, contact Priscilla Gannon at 508-358-3080, email her at gannon.j@comcast.net or register online and purchase tickets here

We’ll also have music, food and a book signing with Bruce Frankel, the author who included a chapter about the Smiths in his just-published book, “What Should I Do with the Rest of My Life.” www.brucefrankel.net
