Reflections of Summer.

We are back after a much-needed hiatus.  Before the break, we shared pictures of the Back To School Event. Here are more pictures of WRAP's Final Day at 535 Winchester.

A beautiful collage the children put together; all wishes for their community.

Looking forward to next summer and more warm-weather activities!

Images of the Back To School Event.

We had a beautiful, cloudless day for our First Annual Back to School Event on Lilac Street.  Here are some of the images captured that day.

Kali and I thank all of our supporters and volunteers who gave of their time, resources or both to make this event happen.  This event lifted a burden for many of our families and the kids had a great time!

Enjoy.

We had generous volunteers from NHS of New Haven.

Local businesses that sponsored our event. Thank you Piggy Back Rides!

A mysterious photographer.  Is that Gary Holder-Winfield?

Loyal residents that love their neighborhood.

Great music.  Thank you DJ "Ultimate", DJ "E", and Tootskee.  You know how to move the crowd!

It's not a block party without dancing.  Lots of it.
