Spring Fling at Becket House at Campton

April, 2009, Becket House at Campton

The recent Spring Fling at Campton was an absolute blast! Many families showed up for the festivities and could be seen tossing around footballs, interacting with students, clinicians, and residential workers all with tremendous smiles on their faces. The students were able to let loose and have fun with staff and their families in well structured events such as the water balloon toss and a mammoth tug of war event.
Pulling an evening together like this is much more than inviting families over for a cook out. It was an evening of teamwork, fun, and positive family interactions. Congratulations to Becket House at Campton, and their supportive team willing to go the extra mile for the students they support, for making this event such a success!
