This food truck is popular at festivals and beaches all summer long. In 2021, a pair of enterprising students majors saw a sweet opportunity in a gap in Connecticut’s ice cream market.  With just a single freezer and a shared dream, Brandon and Benjamin Foligno, of New Britain, with the encouragement of their Aunt Lisa, launched Seaside Creamery. Three years later, the Foligno brothers’ ice cream truck business continues to capture their community’s taste buds.

The American Legion provides the best cuisine with their food truck, thanks to Cliff Burelle, also a VCCC member, and his wife Debbie.  This is the largest veterans service organization in America, chartered by Congress in 1919. It is no secret that far too many military veterans and their families struggle to get by. This is especially true after coming home from deployment, after having been discharged from duty, or if they have been severely injured. The American Legion works to help alleviate problems surrounding housing and living and offers personal counseling.

The vendor team at the car show came from Goodwin University’s School of Business, Technology, and Advanced Manufacturing. They provided information on CNC, Welding, and Manufacturing Management programs. These are new, cutting-edge careers in a variety of manufacturing degrees and certificate programs.  

Klingberg founded in 1903 extends hope and healing to thousands of children and families each year whose lives have been traumatized by abuse and/or neglect, severe family problems and mental health issues. An auto restoration teaching program is an important part of their endeavors, as well as the beautiful Raymond Hill School. 

The Home Depot Foundation improves the homes of U.S. veterans, trains skilled tradespeople to fill the labor gap and supports communities impacted by natural disasters.
