Bonne Santé Wellness Center, located at 4 Huntley Rd., is hosting a special “Ladies Wellness Night’ fundraising event to be held on Wednesday, March 30, from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Funds raised will benefit the Lyme-Old Lyme High School (LOLHS) Class of 2016 Safe Graduation Party (Safegrad).
Safegrad is an all-night, substance-free party enjoyed yearly by seniors. Rosemary Barclay, founder and owner of Bonne Santé wellness center states, “We have a great tradition in Lyme-Old Lyme. For many years, parents have hosted an all-night party at a “secret location,” where students have the opportunity to share food, music, entertainment and memories with their classmates. While the party is hosted entirely by parents of seniors, it takes a community effort to help our children remain safe and supervised while celebrating this wonderful milestone.”
Barclay is a supporter of education in our community: she is a founder member of the Lyme/Old Lyme Education Foundation (LOLEF) and has also initiated a scholarship for youth entering the business studies arena through the Lyme-Old Lyme Chamber of Commerce.
Barclay understands the need to support this event financially but also encourages celebration of achievements and milestones. Additionally, many teachers, senior class students and parents are clients of Bonne Santé and sponsoring this event with proceeds going to Safegrad is a special way of thanking valued clients.
Entrance fee to the “Ladies Wellness Event” is $30 including refreshments and a mini-service but an RSVP is important, particularly if attendees wish to take advantage of a service on the night (chair massage and make up color matches or nutritional advice, all of which will be offered as well as an introduction to our holistic acne clinic.) Services will be on a first come, first served basis with sign-up in advance – call 860-434-7429 to reserve a service on the night. If you wish to book a service for a later date, proceeds will still be donated.
In addition Barclay will also donate a percentage of all gift certificate and product sales made throughout the month of April so any community member wishing to purchase gift certificates for birthdays or Mother’s Day in advance should do so online at www.bonnesantellc.com throughout the month of April 2016 and mention code SAFEGRAD.
Refreshments will be served throughout the evening, which promises to be a fun night and a time for both parents and community members to socialize while raising funds towards this cause.
