Family Day in Our Communities

Family is extremely important to everyone here at the Rocca Sisters Team!  Our motto, “Sisters, Best friends …and Partners”, means that family and relationships are what our brand is built on. That is why our team enjoy Family Day each year – a special day to be grateful for our loved ones and to spend a day enjoying each other’s company. This year, Family Day falls on Monday, February 18th, 2019. If you’re looking for something special to do with your family this year, the Rocca Sisters have you covered!
