Episode description
This is an encore presentation of the Champions for Children podcast, originally released on Dec. 21, 2020.
For over a century, Christmas at the Nemours Mansion and Estate in Wilmington, Delaware has been an opportunity to decorate, celebrate, and welcome the public for an immersive experience of holiday life behind the walls of Nemours in days of yore.
2020 is an exception, however, as COVID-19 has closed the mansion until Spring 2021. Instead, enjoy a social distanced audio love letter that provides a taste of that immersive experience, with Nemours associate Riva Brown as our guide
Also, an encore airing of a story that first appeared on the podcast in August 2019, and yet has its own holiday theme. It features Jacksonville-based Nemours talent acquisition partner Dragona Piljug. Her path to Nemours begins far away in both time and place: Bosnia in the 1980’s.
