The Angelwood Annual Celebration: Soaring Possibilities took place Aug. 21 at the Sawgrass Marriott. It was also streamed live via Facebook.
The event had a beach theme with casual attire, games inside and outside and a strolling dinner at four food stations. The program included a welcome from presenting sponsor Rachel DuBois and Robin Wahby of Wahby Financial Group, a live and silent auction and a standing ovation for the Angelwood Staff that were watching from Angelwood’s six group homes.
