A Journey of Dedication
Over a Decade of Support
The Leahy Family ' s Dedication Lights Up the Heart of Mitchell L . Slotnick Center
The Mitchell L . Slotnick Center is a vibrant facility that participants affectionately call home . Laughter , along with the bustling energy of NSSRA participants , fills the air as they engage in various activities such as creating self-empowerment , enjoying a snack , practicing the piano , or relaxing with yoga , all infused with fun and inclusivity .
In March , this spirit of togetherness took center stage as NSSRA proudly named one of our five Recreation Rooms the Leahy Recreation Room . Bart Leahy , accompanied by his son Bryson , was surrounded by family and friends , members of the NSSRA Foundation and Board of Directors , Jay and Valerie Slotnick , and NSSRA staff at the dedication ceremony . Thanks to Bart ' s contagious enthusiasm and the Leahy Family ' s unwavering commitment to NSSRA , the collective group filled the room with a palpable sense of joy .
A Journey of Dedication
The Leahy Family ' s connection with NSSRA runs deep , starting with Kathy Leahy , Bart ' s beloved aunt , a vibrant participant until the early 2000s . Her love for social outings and the choral group resonated within the NSSRA community , becoming a cherished part of her life . The Leahy Family showcases Kathy ' s love for NSSRA by extending their gracious support in numerous ways .
Over a Decade of Support
Since 2011 , the Leahy Family has steadfastly supported NSSRA . Their contributions have been vast and varied , from supporting events like the Shining Stars Banquet and Summer Bash to playing a crucial role in the NSSRA Foundations ' A Place to Belong Capital Campaign . Notably , Bart Leahy ' s larger-than-life personality and boisterous crew have been a fixture and presenting sponsor at the NSSRA Foundation ' s SWING Golf outing for nearly a decade and , to Bart ' s surprise , have won the tournament from time to time .
