Children in the EMQ FamiliesFirst residences enjoyed a
Halloween Party

The Butter Paddle volunteers held their annual Halloween Party for the children in our 24/7 Intensive Services Program. Special thanks to Ellen Lowenthal and all the other Butter Paddle volunteers who helped out with the frightfully fun event.

Children of the residential cottages enjoyed Halloween fun and games. Volunteers created holiday magic with facepainting. Rumor has it that on any other day this is Jana Cira, a Butter Paddle store volunteer.     Children were provided costumes. House of Horrors included thrilling decorations.     Pumpking decorating was a favorite. Kids enjoyed active games like lawn bowling.   The Butter Paddle is a beautiful home accessories, gift, and gourmet store located in the heart of downtown Saratoga’s main shopping district. Store proceeds benefit the children of EMQ FamiliesFirst. Find out more about volunteering at the Butter Paddle.
