A Heartfelt Thank You
A heartfelt
thanks to all of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, members and guests
for making this year's Celebration of Center City Living- Casino Night
and More a memorable success! Congrats to our grand prize winners- the
excitement in the room was palpable when the lucky ticket holders were
announced.
We all enjoyed Governor Rendell's
personal stories and appreciated his respect for the tenacity of CCRA in
keeping "CCRAville" resident friendly despite the many changes and
challenges over the years. Without your support, we couldn't continue
to do this. See you next year!
