Resident Life

July brought us several opportunities to enrich our love for sweets. We celebrated World Chocolate Day and enjoyed one of the best parts of summer— Peaches and Cream.

We even threw our own “Garage Sale” of sorts with our Trash to Treasure affair. July brought us several opportunities to enrich our love for sweets. We celebrated World Chocolate Day and enjoyed one of the best parts of summer— Peaches and Cream.

Join Us - August

Do you like museums? Our first activity of the month is an outing. On August 2 nd , we are headed to the History Museum at the Arvada Center for the Arts. This is a free museum with minimal walking.

On the 5 th we’ll return to one of our favorite’s, the “Black Eyed Pea,” a very popular restaurant serving home-style southern cuisine.

Take a journey into the past at the “Old Wagon Antique Store.” Experience excellent opportunities for browsing and reminiscing on August 11 th .

We’ll attempt to win back our losses from July when we visit the Black Hawk Casinos again on the 13 th . We depart at 9:30am and be back home around 3:30pm.

August 13 th is also “International Left-Handed Day”. Gloria will challenge you with left handed facts and trivia, famous left-handers, writing and coloring left-handed, pouring and measuring liquids or cutting with a pair of scissors. See just how right brained you are.

On the 18 th we are welcoming our newest residents with a “Welcome New Resident” social. All residents are invited to attend. We’ll learn a little about each other as we share our stories. This is a great opportunity to meet and make new friends. Root beer floats will be served.

We are going to the Anythink Library again on the 19 th and we really enjoying this outing!

Our August picnic is on the 26 th at the Squires Park in Westminster. Gloria will barbecue up some burgers and dogs and who knows, we might even take a little stroll around the park after our bellies are full.
