Radio City Christmas Spectacular


On November 9th, 2013 SEC took a special trip into NYC to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular starring the world famous Radio City Rockettes.   We traveled into the city via metro-north railroad and walked a few short blocks to Radio City Music Hall.  As we walked to the venue we walked past Rockefeller Center to see the Rockefellar Christmas Tree being decorated, an added delight.  We arrived at Radio City with enough time to take some photos and get comfortable for a 90min blockbuster performance that kept everyone on the edge of their seats.  After the show we had lunch at TGI Fridays and a Black & White cookie from Juniors for Dessert.  A spectacular South East trip to begin the holiday season!

Magical Mystery Celebrates Halloween Early!

On Sunday October 27th the Magical Mystery group attended the The Miracle League of Westchester's "Very Special Halloween" event and had a blast! We were able to go trick or treating around all the different tables, play games, and were entertained by a guy on stilts! 

After fulling up our bags with lots of candy and treats we headed over to the craft area and got our picture taken, explored some Halloween setups and did a few special crafts. Next we ate some lunch outside and enjoyed all that Autumn has to offer such as the crisp air and the and the colorful trees. 

With full bellies we were ready to take a ride on the tractor hayride. The DJ was playing music as we rode all around the field. Next we went to the pumpkin patch and each picked a pumpkin that we later were able to decorate. Everyone has such a good time on this perfect Fall day!

After a delightful afternoon we ended our day with a movie at a local movie theater. Another successful Magical Mystery adventure.

Apple Picking at Weeds Orchard



It was a perfect Fall day, the sun was shining bright and there was a crispness in the air. The Magical Mystery group took a trip to Weeds Orchard in Marlboro New York. When we arrived we received our bags for apple picking and wagons for transporting the bounty of our labor.

First we had a delicious BBQ chicken dinner along with some corn on the cobb, corn bread and baked beans. Then we started our journey through the rows and rows of apple trees. There was such great variety to choose from, Fuji, Golden Delicious, Honey Crip and so on. We picked the apples of our choosing and filled up the bags that we later got to take home with us.


Next we walked through the juicy Concord grapes and got to taste both red and white varieties on our way to the tractor ride. The tractor took us on a grand tour of the grounds, the rolling hills was quite the vision for all of us on the ride. Finally we walked through the pumpkin patch and made our way to the picnic tables where we ended our day with a snack of homemade cinnamon and pumpkin bread. Everyone had such a great time!
