A special thank you goes out to the Over 17 Club for hosting an awesome Family and Friends picnic on June 18. Over 130 family members, residents, and staff attended the event held at the Camp America Day Camp. We transported 16 residents. We were treated to a day of fun activities including swimming, boating, and our own version of the game show Minute to Win It. DJ Herman, Matt Price’s brother-in-law, provided the music and did we have some good dancers in the group. (Mrs. Price said to say hi to everyone.) The food was scrumptious and never ending and the weather was perfect.
The Therapeutic Recreation Department would like to thank all of the staff for their support in making it happen. From the staff who attended the event to provide support, to the staff who assisted with the planning and the staff who ran around to make sure the residents were ready to go, thank you thank you thank you. To Pam and Amanda this could not have happened without you.
For those of you unable to make it, you Kenny Chesney fans, the Over 17 Club hopes to host it again next year. We will make sure to schedule it well in advance next year. For those of you who signed up and did not make it please be aware that the Over 17 Club sponsored and paid for the entire event based on the number of people who signed up. We hope that we can count on your support for future fund raising activities so that they can host this event again in the future.
The group is starting to plan for their Beef and Beer. We are looking to move the date to September or October. We are looking for more staff to be actively involved in the event so please see a member to volunteer.
Thank you,
The Over 17 Club
