Rick Cavender
Caroling is Cavender!

It's the most wonderful time of the year, here at Clarity CGC, when Rick Cavender and the singing elves from City Year and Cavender Audi serenade the kids with Christmas carols! Rick had the kids clapping, singing and jingle bell rocking!

Thank you Rick, Cavender Audi, and our great friends at City Year for your musical gift!
