Record-breaking year for 10th Anniversary of Walkathon and Family Fun Day
Community Connections, Inc. (CCI) held their 10th Annual Walkathon and Family Fun Day at the Fairhaven Recreation Center on Sunday, September 17th. This annual event helps bring awareness and funding to help individuals with disabilities who participate in CCI’s programs across Southern Massachusetts and Cape Cod.

Some events of the day included a dunk tank, carnival games, raffles, vendors, face painting, and a bouncy house and of course the three-mile walk.
Community Connections would like to thank all donors, volunteers, and sponsors who helped contribute to the success of this event, especially HUB International for their generous donation and continued support.
