Katrina Cardillo • February 3, 2025

Held on October 25th at The Williams Inn, the event held to celebrate BFAIR’s 30th Anniversary, the event brought together over 125 guests, sponsors, and community members who embraced the nostalgic atmosphere with 90s-inspired attire, music, and activities. DJ MusiChris kept the dance floor alive, and guests enjoyed interactive experiences including a photo booth, raffle, and silent auction. 


CEO Rich Weisenflue shared, “We’re humbled by the generosity of our supporters. The funds raised will enhance our programs, from residential and employment services to community living and self-advocacy initiatives.” 


A special live auction, hosted by former board member Alex Kastrinakis, highlighted BFAIR’s mission. Kim Baker, Board Member and Event Chair, emphasized, “The community’s generosity ensures BFAIR continues providing meaningful services.” 


We extend our heartfelt thanks to our attendees, sponsors, and volunteers, with special recognition to SourcePass and Adams Community Bank
