Shelton girl meets Katy Perry onstage at Mohegan Sun

Katy Perry and Gabriella Jones

SHELTON - One lucky Shelton child met Katy Perry onstage at her recent concert at Mohegan Sun, thanks to the world-famous singer and Boys & Girls Clubs of America. 

Katy and BGCA have joined together to help put millions of young people on the path to a great future; part of the venture included giving her fans a chance to see her live by showing their support of their local Boys & Girls Club. 

The Valley's Boys & Girls Club was awarded 50 tickets for the concert at Mohegan Sun on Sept. 21, and the show was the second performance of Perry's brand new Witness tour.

At the concert, during a set which included planets and stars descending to stage level, Katy asked if any of her fans would like to help her wish upon a star. 

After searching the audience, Katy selected Gabriella Jones, a member of the Raymond P. Lavietes Unit in Shelton. 

Gabriella was wearing one of the special bright pink T-shirts made for the event, with a Boys & Girls Club logo on the front. 
When Katy brought her on stage, she asked Gabriella to wish on the star and to say what she wished for so that people could support her in her wish. 

After a moment of thought, Gabriella responded, “To pray for all the people that suffered from the hurricanes.” 
The crowd went wild, and Katy noted that Gabriella had been “brought up right,” and with the audience, Katy and Gabriella sent love and support to all those affected by the hurricanes.

As part of the partnership with Katy Perry, $1 of every ticket purchased is donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of America. 

The partnership was formed because Katy and BGCA share a commitment to improving the lives of young people through education, empowerment, and demonstrating good citizenship. 
Katy is one of the most famous singers in the world and is the most-followed person on Twitter with nearly one hundred million followers.

The Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley has been changing the lives of young people in the Valley for more than 60 years, providing safe, fun, affordable programming and constructive care for youth when they are not in school. More than 3,300 kids in four units attend our programs on a yearly basis.

SHELTON - Residents of Crosby Commons Independent and Assisted Living Community here brought their energy and enthusiasm to the Mohegan Sun Arena Saturday for the American Athletic Conference Quarterfinals. 

The group cheered on the UConn Lady Huskies and enjoyed two great basketball games at the tournament, watching Tulane defeat Memphis 70-64, and UConn defeat East Carolina, 92-51. 

The trip was organized by Activities Director Kelly Coppola and coordinated with the help of Crosby driver, Angelo Constantini and volunteer Karly Coppola. 

“It was a great trip!” said Crosby resident John Balogh. “I graduated from UConn in 1953, so I’m a big fan. I try to watch all the games.” 

Asked his predictions on the Lady Huskies for the end of the season, Balogh was very optimistic. “They’re going to win the National Championship,” he said.
