c; -""' L T The Rehab By Peter Hanson !though the numerous confessional books and damp-eyed talk show A guests that have flooded popular culture in the last decade have made the recovery movement seem trendy or even ridiculous, there are thousands of recovering alcoholics and substance abusers who would beg to differ. To these people, recovery is a life­ saving experience.· One local organization that helps addicts kick their habits is St Peter's Addiction Recovery Center (SPARC), which has more than 100 employees and operates at five facilities in the Capital District, including three at St. Peter's Hospital in Albany. In order to promote SPARC's activities, the organization's administrators struck upon the idea of presenting annual Fall Family Festivals in 1992. Six years later, the Festivals are a thriving community tradition, with the latest one set to take place Sunday, Sept. 13, from noon to 4:30 p.m. on The College of Saint Rose cam­ pus, at 432 Western Ave. ill Albany. Admission and parking to the event are free, and refreshments will be available for purchase. "It's a fun day parents and kids can enjoy without alcohol or drugs," said Some of the entertainers appearing at this year's SPARC Fall Family Festival include Stefanie VanAmerongen, SPARC's (clockwise from top) The Fall Foliage Fooleries, Jinx the Clown and "La-Dee-Dah." manager of program support services.
