Volunteer
Appreciation Luncheon
CASA volunteers gathered “Down Under” for the
2007 Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon held on June 2nd at the
Outback Steakhouse. The food and facilities were generously
donated by the restaurant. Outback Steakhouse provides in-kind
services by donating food and enlisting the volunteer spirit
of employees to support CASA programs on a national level.
A jazz ensemble made up of young musicians from the Colorado
Springs School’s Broadmoor Academy of Music (BAM) played
as guests arrived, dazzling us all with their incredible talent.
Special thanks to Managing Director Steve Draper and his gifted
young men for donating their time.
In celebration of the event theme, “A Garden of Thanks,” volunteers
received small gifts including seed packets, potted plants,
