Brooksby Farm Senior Day 2015

On Thursday, September 17th  from 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m, High School Seniors at the Academy volunteered their time at Mayor Bettencourt's 3rd  annual “Senior Citizens Day” at Brooksby Farm. Academy students helped 450 of Peabody's senior citizens take part  in the festivities. Students helped seniors take tours of some of the Peabody Historical properties such as the old fire house, original Brooksby Barn as well as other historical houses. The event concluded with a cookout in which Academy students helped served seniors lunch. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to meet and interact with the elderly community of Peabody. It was very rewarding for our students as well as the senior citizens.
