VSC PROJECTS
CHRISTMAS PROGRAM​
Each December, the VSC sponsors and plans a campus-wide Christmas program for the residents. The program consists of a facility wide Christmas tree decorating contest, resident choir performances, resident dance performances and a holiday treat! In addition to the program, the VSC purchases and sets up Christmas decorations on campus for the entire month of December.
ANNUAL MUSIC FESTIVAL​​
Each year, the Texas State Hospitals and State Supported Living Centers come together for their annual "Follow Your Dreams Music Festival". Residents from every state facility come together in San Marcos to compete in multiple musical and dance categories. While this event is planned by state employees, it is not funded by the state. Each year, the VSC pays for all participating resident's event registration fee and room and board! Our residents LOVE this event and begin practicing months in advance.

CHRISTMAS ON THE DIAMOND​​
This is an event held each year at Miracle League Field! This past year we had Christmas displays, music, vendors, activities for the kids, photo opportunities, food, Santa Claus, and the Grinch! Explosive Ads even played The Polar Express movie on Corpus Christi's largest screen! It was a BLAST and we are excited to continue watching this event grow each year!
BUC DAYS PARADE FLOAT​​
Each year the CCSSLC residents are represented in the local Buccaneer Night Parade. The VSC and volunteers worked hard to create a beautifully decorated float representing the Volunteer Services Council of the CCSSLC. Residents, staff and VSC board members all stand on the float and participate in the parade! In 2022, the facility was still under COVID-19 protocols so residents were unable to attend. We are looking forward to 2023 though!
VSC HOEDOWN​​
This project is held on-campus this summer! The VSC planned an afternoon of activities for the residents. Some of the activities will include cowboy boot decorating, mechanical bull rides, country line dancing and more! We are excited to host the event this year and see it grow and become an annual event for our residents! Stay tuned to our social media for event photos.
