Arthur Murray Donates 138 Meals to Plow Drivers
A canceled event has led to a well-deserved meal for the men and women clearing our roads.
Connecticut's Arthur Murray Dance Studio locations were going to hold a teacher appreciation gala in Hartford Saturday night, but the event was canceled because of the snow.
Because the cancellation was so late, the people running the gala told Arthur Murray that they still had to pay for the gala and the 138 meals that were ordered.
Well, according to Arthur Murray Niantic owner Jessica Freitas, after posting the cancellation on the Hartford Courant's website and talking to some people, Arthur Murray finally found something to do with those 138 dinners: send them off to Connecticut public works crews for the drivers of all the plow trucks. The meals will now be given to the men and women clearing our roads.
