Last week, the hotel with cosponsorship of NFL Alumni (Madison Chapter) held its annual Children's Holiday Party. Now in its 27th year, this event provides an early Holiday celebration to Madison-area children from various area community centers and organizations. 

The evening began with a dinner complete with cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets, chocolate milk, cupcakes, and more. Following their meal, the children participated in various activities including photos by Lifetouch Photography with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and the Grinch; cookie decorating; crafts with Revel; magic from local magician Wayne the Wizard; and the Madison Fire Department dropped by to hand out junior fire hats.

One of our current employees, Nessa, used to attend this event as a child. This year, she volunteered to help serve dinner and decorate cookies. This was a full-circle moment where a child who used to attend this celebration can now give back to the children of our community.

We are so happy to bring a Happy Holidays to these children every year and see the smiles on their faces. May their season (and yours) be merry and bright.
