United Cerebral Palsy-Center for Disability Services hosts Candy Land event

The United Cerebral Palsy-Center for Disability Services held a Candy Land-themed event for students and clients Dec. 17.

Students and clients traveled through the sugarcoated game, visiting the Candy Cane Forest, Gumdrop Mountain and Molasses Swamp, all the while collecting sweets and treats as they headed foward Santa Claus and his elves.

The activity was hosted by the UCP-CDS Board of Directors, Leadership Team and staff.

Each student received a Candy Land game.

“Everyone had a delicious time in Candy Land,” Development Director Gina Wysocki-Szpur said.

“We are so very blessed to have many inspiring employees that bring some pretty amazing ideas to the table for our students, clients and staff to enjoy,” Wysocki-Szpur said. “And we are already putting together ideas for a Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory themed activity for next year.”

“Many of our students and adult clients will not be able to experience visiting Santa this year, so we brought him here instead,” Director of Finance Amy Vicioso said.

“Putting a Candy Land themed activity together was a fun way for students and adult clients to celebrate the holidays in an interactive and educational setting,” Vicioso said.
