The setting was Arena's Eis House in Mexico, transformed to a magical May Day celebration in Sherwood Forest. Guests were treated to a royal procession, feasting, Renaissance food, archery and other games, and a ceremonial coronation. Lois O'Connor, caseworker with the development team, helped to organize the event. Some people rented their costumes and others created their own. There are approximately 65 foster homes in Oswego County which provide temporary care for children who, for a variety of reasons, can't remain in their own homes.
Foster parents complete an orientation and training course to become certified.
