May 2025 Newsletter

Updated: 3 days ago

This Past Month, we had the pleasure of hosting two delightful celebrations! These Events provided an opportunity to foster connections between our assisted living and nursing home residents and the broader community. We aimed to create an inclusive environment that encourages engagement and interaction!


The First event was a heartfelt baby shower for our esteemed Administrator, Hallie, who is eagerly expecting her first child. We gathered and enjoyed delicious cookies and warm conversations, celebrating this exciting new chapter for Hallie.


Our second celebration involved a collaborative effort with Grace Estates to bring our community together by organizing a community Easter Egg Hunt. Residents, tenants, and staff worked together to fill the eggs with candy, fostering a sense of teamwork. The highlight of the event was witnessing the joy of the children as they scurried around on Easter Sunday, excitedly collecting the hidden treasurers. Thank you to everyone who made these events successful!
