CODA (Citizens Opposed to Domestic Abuse) celebrated its 25th Anniversary Celebration this past weekend in the garden of the Rhett House Inn. The party was held to thank all the big hearted members of the community who have helped CODA in its great work to support victims of domestic violence and their children over these past 25 years. Here are some pictures of the attendees:
