Some of your favorite soap stars from Days of our Lives, General Hospital, The Young and the Restless, and The Bay recently got together for an event called Enchantment Under the Sea with Samantha’s Friends. Samantha and Alice Bozza started Samantha’s Friends 28 years ago, and all of the proceeds for this event benefitted Donte’s Den Foundation, Valor Service Dogs, and Play For Life Foundation.

Enchantment Under The Sea

Mike Manning (Caleb, The Bay; ex-Charlie, DAYS) serves as an ambassador for the foundation. “I am honored that they invited me to be part of the family,” he shared. “I’ll be back here in September [for their next event]. They have service canines that come to the events every time, and I love dogs. If you have fun people, a good theme, and dogs, I am there!” Check out all the interviews and photos from the event below!

Carson Boatman (Johnny, DAYS), no stranger to singing, wowed the crowd with his version of Friends in Low Places. He loves meeting the fans, stating, “I think it is such a cool opportunity we have as actors.”
