Ansonia holds parade, house decorating contest continues, McDonald's reopens


Dear readers,

Here is the link to Friday's Valley Voice newsletter that I completely forgot to post yesterday. 

I hope you enjoy reading about the Parade of Champions in Ansonia, the rebuilt McDonald's in Derby, and more.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and thanks for reading!

Seymour Pink donates $10K to Griffin Hospital Development Fund

Sharing this from Seymour Pink's Facebook page:


"Yesterday, Seymour Pink presented a check for $10,000 to Pat Charmel for Griffin Hospital Development Fund. 
"These monies will support the the ability of Griffin Hospital Hewitt Breast Wellness Center to utilize a less invasive, less caustic option for treating breast cancer called Stereotactic Radiosurgery.
"It is a "must have" technology for progressive cancer centers.

"Currently, those patients who are candidates for this treatment are referred to satellite cancer/medical/surgical centers.

"I want to personally thank Colleen Garofalo, Secretary of Seymour Pink, (at left), and Christine Vartko, Treasurer of Seymour Pink, for making this presentation happen yesterday!

AND thank YOU...ALL who support the FIGHT against breast cancer...your support is and will continue to MAKE A DIFFERENCE in the lives impacted by this horrific diagnosis!~"


*As a breast cancer survivor who was fortunate enough to have received assistance from Seymour Pink in the past, I had to share this wonderful news! 
Seymour Pink is a great organization that continues to do so much to help those who are diagnosed with the disease.

Wishing readers a Merry Christmas with a little help from some friends
