You can pass on The Midnight Feast!

Sadly, our book club pick this month was not a winner. The book was anticlimactic and the characters were either boring or unlikable.

At least the food was good at Papi's Hampden! 🌮

Falcon Thon is a dance marathon fundraiser that supports Johns Hopkins Children's Center and Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. ✨

Hopkins Samantha Lavallee heard about the program through the Children’s Center during a cardiology checkup in 2022. In 2023, she brought Falcon Thon to Severna Park High School!

“The first annual event was on May 3, 2024, where we raised over $5,600 for Johns Hopkins Children's Center and Children's Miracle Network! I continued the event last year, which was on April 4, 2025, where we raised over $8,000. This year, Severna Park High School's 3rd annual Falcon Thon will take place on Friday, April 10, 2026!” 👏

Samantha and her team also fundraised with local sponsors to provide free T-shirts and swag at the events. Local businesses even donated food and raffle prizes to make each event awesome! ❤️

Stronger Hearts Foundation (SHF) was founded by two heart parents, Kali and Conner, whose son Dawson was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Dawson now receives his primary cardiology care from Dr. Ravekes at the Heart Center. 🫀

SHF helps families of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) during the hardest days of their lives with emergency financial assistance for housing, day-of-surgery care, and a community that never lets them face CHD alone. ✨
