2010 Precinct 6 "Young at Heart" Senior Citizen's Gala

Twenty years ago Harris County Constable Precinct 6 Victor Trevino and his staff held a small gathering to honor the seniors of the community by giving them a day of celebration with food, dance. Over the years the event has grown tremendously.

Senior citizens from various sites in Precinct 6 along with others from throughout Harris County will attend the gala for an afternoon of holiday cheer and memorable fun. The day's festivities will include a visit from Santa, presents, plenty of food, a special performance by Pancho Claus and an appearance by the Houston Aeros.

This year, the event is expected to draw well over 2000 seniors.
Constable Trevino said this has always been a way of giving back to the seniors in the community. "This is just a small token of our appreciation for everything our 'young at heart' give to others - whether it's community service, their kindness or their wisdom," he said. "They've paved the way for all of us and we are truly thankful."

This event is sponsored by The City of Houston -- George R. Brown Convention Center, Aramark Corp., the Precinct 6 Constable's Athletic, Recreational & Educational Events Inc. (CARE), the Precinct 6 staff, and the business community. Many individuals and volunteers help make this event possible.
