(Courtesy of MVRCS) M ystic Valley Elder Services (MVES) hosted some special guests recently at 630 Salem St. in Malden. Students from Mystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) visited the building with a mission: to spread holiday cheer. The 630 Salem St. building, which is part of Malden Housing Authority, is home to older adults and people with disabilities. The building has collaborated with MVRCS for about a decade, but due to COVID-19, the holiday party was on hiatus. Everyone was excited for the celebration to return in 2023! Students and staff arrived in the afternoon to set up the Common Room and make sure everything was looking festive. The evening got underway with an elaborate holiday meal presented by the school. The MVRCS Band – guided by Music Director Robert Taylor – led a program of holiday songs complete with the sounds of real jingle bells. The school Chorus lent their vocal talents, inspiring everyone to sing along. The school also held lottery-style giveaways, offering numerous scratch tickets, gift cards and fl ower bouquets as prizes. MVRCS Director Alexander Dan stepped in as emcee for the drawings. Students helped with the drawings and prize selection and even provided live translation for Chinese-speaking residents. Residents had a wonderful time at the event and it put everyone in a joyous mood for the holidays. MVES would like to thank the school and Malden Housing Authority for making the event so special. It is truly a beloved tradition at 630 Salem St. For more info about MVES, please call 781-324-7705 or visit www.mves.org.
