June News and Events

Updates:
Carol would like to thank everyone who attended our wonderful Mother's Day celebration. Your presence made a special day even more special.

As you may well know, we have been busy painting and redecorating the lobby. Please feel free to stop by and see our new look. We hope you feel it is as warm and inviting as we do.

We have had many changes during May. Andy has taken over for Rebecca in the Marketing/Admissions office. He will be here to help us until he needs to get to work at Park Regency Thornton. Karla moved to California and Eva is our new Administrative Assistant at the front desk. Please welcome both Andy and Eva to their new positions.

At the last resident council meeting, a question was raised regarding the notes that get placed in the ugly brown box. Carol does read each and every note that goes into the box. We have been doing our best to accommodate any requests that we can. I cant tell you that the majority of the notes we receive are complimentary. We have received numerous cards stating how happy everyone is with our new Dietary Manager, Dirk. We do appreciate all your comments.

Memory Wreath:
A memory wreath made by our residents was donated to the Alzheimer's Association to be part of the Memories in the Making auction to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association. The clothing used to make the wreath was donated by residents or by families of residents who had either moved or passed away. The making of the memory wreath proved an excellent means for everyone to reminisce about good times together. We had14 of our crafty residents from our Saturday arts and crafts class work on this wreath. They cut colorful patches out of the various clothing items and stuffed them into a wooden wreath, arranging them into a beautiful design. Sue and Carol were both able to attend the Memories in the Making Auction on Tuesday, May 21, 2013, at the Hilton Hotel in Fort Collins. Thank you to all the residents that worked on this project.
