An Early Christmas
At NYA
Santa arrived early for the DâAmico family this year. On December 19 at the Newtown Youth Academy, the family coordinated a âSanta and Soccerâ event sponsored by Bulk Materials Int. and SCB Office Park. The free event drew roughly 100 children, who each received a wrapped gift.
âIt was a wonderful event! The DâAmico family is very appreciative of all the volunteers who helped. Everyone helped in the spirit of Christmas,â said Marybeth DâAmico.
Also available to children were free soccer lessons, face painting, crafts, and an inflatable obstacle course. Children also enjoyed snacks and performances from area teenagers on behalf of Sabrinaâs Encore Productions.
The DâAmicos also collected 75 soccer balls for the âKick for Nickâ soccer ball drive. On behalf of one fallen Connecticut serviceman, the balls will go to children overseas. See kickfornick.org for more information.
