On Oscars Night, May 5, 2006, CASA of Franklin County held its annual Volunteer Recognition Dinner in conjunction with its Oscars Party, at The Franklin Park Conservatory.  Approximately 150 guests gathered in the Palm House,  including more than 60 CASA/ GAL volunteers.  The beautiful space was generously donated by Franklin Park.  Volunteers were recognized for numerous accomplishments, including service for three, five, and ten years with the program, outstanding commitment, going the extra mile, and making special contributions.  Also lauded were CASA's "Rookies of the Year."  In celebration of the program's 15th Anniversary, CASA volunteers were awarded for landmark work on cases.
