A group of seven middle school students representing the STEPS (Southington Town-wide Efforts to Promote Success) Youth Committee had a great time entertaining the senior residents of Mulberry Gardens on Wednesday, evening December 16th. The residents had filled a large recreation room in anticipation of the arrival of the young people who arrived in their season appropriate red STEPS T-shirts .
The program was strummed-off with a guitar instrumental by a boy who started things off decking the halls with musical holly. That got the spirit going for a delighted audience who spontaneously joined the STEPS group in singing a series of traditional and contemporary Christmas Carols. Residents, hosting staff members and the youth enjoyed a cheerful evening together.
The STEPS coalition, now in its seventh year in Southington, has grown to the point of regularly seeing STEPS activities everywhere around town, in our schools, classrooms, community parades and other outdoor activities, walk-a-thons, Salvation Army Bell Ringing and Car Washes as they contribute to the non-profit charity and service groups in Southington.
