On Dec. 6th, The Arc of Chester County kicked off the holiday season with its most joyful Holiday Fun Fest yet.

 Families from across the community came together for a warm, welcoming, and fully inclusive celebration filled with festive fun and holiday magic.

Children were delighted to visit Santa and Mrs. Claus, while Frosty the Snowman kept the energy high with lively freeze-dance fun.

Guests enjoyed a delicious pancake breakfast with all the seasonal toppings, a cozy hot cocoa bar, an ornament activity and a decorate-your-own holiday cookie station that sparked creativity and smiles.

The Arc’s loyal and long-time partner and friends at the Rotary Club of the Upper Main Line prepared and served breakfast, and the enthusiastic Conestoga High School Interact Club students helped ensure the day ran smoothly by helping to lead the various activities.

The Arc extends its very special appreciation to its event committee, volunteers, and dedicated Arc staff, whose hard work and spirit made the celebration truly memorable.

“This year’s Holiday Fun Fest captured the heart of the season,” said Jeanne Meikrantz, CEO of The Arc of Chester County. “We’re grateful to everyone who helped create such a welcoming and joyful experience for our families.”
