54th Annual Dr. Elliott Celebration
On Thursday, December 8th, Hudson Guild hosted the 54th Annual Dr. Elliott Celebration, an evening honoring Chelsea's community leaders for their outstanding service and celebrating the life of Dr. John Lovejoy Elliott. This year's honorees included Kathy Andrade (Senior Service Award), Malcolm DeShields (Youth Service Award), and Save Chelsea (Dorothy Epstein Community Service Award). Dinner, which was served by youth in our Teen Services Program, was followed by entertainment by Harold "Stumpy" Cromer, a professional performer who was born and raised in Chelsea and began his career at Hudson Guild. It was a great celebration of leadership, service, and community!
