Dancing and a Dunking Booth: Dungarvin Connecticut Enjoys Annual Picnic Event

Music and dancing, Karaoke, great food and a dunking booth were all part of the recent Dunagrvin Connecticut Annual Summer Picnic at the YMCA Mountain Mist Day Camp in Meriden.

Staff and individuals served had a great time participating in sports, games, and arts and crafts. Lunch included hamburgers and hot dogs, pasta salad, and lots more.

Popular again this year was a dunking booth, at which picnic attendees could take shots at soaking Dungarvin administrators. Connecticut State Director Robert Gallant ended up drenched in the booth.

“It wasn’t the warmest day and the water from the hose was very cold,” Robert said. “We started doing the dunk booth last year and everyone enjoyed so much, including me, that we brought it back this year. I think it will be a fixture moving forward.”

Robert said the annual picnic is a great way to say thank you to staff and individuals served for being part of the Dungarvin family.

“And it gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy time together without the stress of the daily grind,” he added. “It also gives individuals and staff a chance to reconnect when they haven’t seen each other in a while.”

Judging from the photo of Robert after being doused by a bucket of cold water, he’s a good sport! Way to go Dungarvin Connecticut – we’re glad you enjoyed a great day of fun and laughter.
