The Happiness Committee has been asked to announce Comedy Night benefiting the Challenge Center. The Challenge Center works with physically disabled patients, providing free rehabilitative care to those with severe limitations, who are unable to afford this level of treatment. The rehabilitation department of Grossmont Hospital has worked with them for many years. This year the Challenge Center is excited to have master impressionist Rich Little perform. Several members of the Happiness Committee plan to attend this event and would love to have other members of the staff join them. The event will be held on Friday, September 9, at the Manchester Grand Hyatt. Tickets are $175 each. Please contact Lesley Bradley (740-4145 or lesley.bradley@sharp.com) or Bill Friedel if you're interested in supporting this worthy cause.
