THANK YOU FROM SCITUATE NORTH POLE EXPRESS 2018

 

We would like to express our gratitude and thank everyone who helped make the 11th Annual Scituate North Pole Express on Sunday, December 9th a tremendous success. With over 3,000 people attending and many of them visiting from outside of our community, they all got a taste of Scituate hospitality at its finest. What a pleasure it is to live in such a giving and generous community.  The proceeds from this event benefitted both the Scituate CORSE Foundation (Community of Resources for Special Education) and SHORE (Scituate High Opportunities and Resources for Education).

 

It does take a village to pull together an event of this magnitude and we would like to thank the multitude of volunteers from the SHORE and CORSE organizations as well as Bob McQuaid, Will Candler and Jean DiGiacomondrea who bring so much joy to the children.  We are also very grateful to our generous event donors: Stop and Shop, Owl’s Crossing Preschool, Erdman Preschool, Russell D. Field & Son, Peggy Lawton, Lapel’s Cleaners, Graham Waste, Mark Doremus, Etoile Dance Studio, Anne Lambert Allen, Roche Brothers and Village Market.

 

We cannot tell you how many glowing comments we received from parents, grandparents and the young children themselves who attended!

​

Thank you all for your generosity of time and talent,

ANOTHER FABULOUS GALA

Thank you for another fabulous CORSE Foundation Gala! 

​

Once again, our community came out to support the Scituate CORSE Foundation (Community of Resources for Special Education) at our 13th Annual Gala on October 27th.  We continue to be overwhelmed by our heart-warming and generous guests, the unbelievable auction items and a great tribute to our COMPASS Award winners, Steve and Meghan Helle.  We hope everyone had a wonderful evening!  

​

CORSE would like to acknowledge all those individuals and businesses that donated to and participated in the event’s success. None of this would be possible without our Gala Committee (Anne Lambert Allen, Mariah Avallone, Jessica Baird, Cassi Belmarsh, Melissa Burrill, Lindsey Dietz, Suzanne Erwin, Alexa Houghton, Tracy Johnston, Janet McDonough, Erin McLoughlin, Amy Pischel, Jen Spinale, Marcell St. Jean, Michelle Sullivan, Elizabeth Woods), Hatherly Country Club, The 617 Band, and Susan Dillman (Video Presentation).  Click here to view the video presentation featuring photos from 2017-18 student programs.
