Super Food your Heart Can't live Without

At Garden Way we are so fortunate to have a wonderful nutritionist named Ellen Syverson. She comes and helps residents with any needs or help adjusting there diet.

 She did a wonderful informative presentation for the residents they can not wait for her to return with great feed back.

Do not be fooled by the pictures our movie theatre was jammed full I had to wait till the end to get a picture or two. Which is awesome!!!

 

Memorial Day

 

We started our Memorial Day with a traditional corn husking competition.

 

Thank you American Legion, you put together amazing Flag ceremony for all of us at Garden Way Retirement.

As always a good chat to all the residents and time to hear those brave honorable stories.

 

 

 

A wonderful display put on by Chef Martin and his marvelous crew.

 



Genaration Gap

 

 

We had a special visitor from Trevor and his grandparents. Trevor has been playing since he was six years old! He has learned from hearing only no classes to help him learn, he did it all on his own.

 

 

 

They all love to play the good ole tunes and the residents were all in awe  that such a young gentleman has been able to achieve such a wonderful talent.

 

 

We even had a chance for questions and answers. We all found out that the money he makes for doing these small performance's,he donates to Food for Lane County.

WOW!

He hope he returns when hes back to visit his grandparents.

 



Open House and Wine Tasting

Organ Concert

 

Don and his grandfather came to Garden Way so we could have a evening of organ music. Don is legally blind, has been since he was born. They have tried to do surgery with his vision but it was non successful. He has a wonderful talent of providing music to the world. He learned on a piano first and then accomplished the organ. It sometimes takes a little practice with a new organ or piano but he can learn it.

Not only does he play but can sing too! Keeps a tune pretty well also.  He plays a variety of old time tunes that we all enjoyed.

Easter Brunch

 

The array of food was delectable this is onlt half the brunch. No one could decide on omelette made to order, Ham or the delicious Roast Beef.

 

 

Mr. E and his crew on Easter!!

ah how cute!

 

Everyone got a picture of the Easter bunny even Fancy a resident dog.

Who do you think is cuter?

 

 

Munch'n with Chef Martin

 

 

Every last Wednesday we have a meeting that gives the residents a chance to talk the good, the bad and everything in between. They get to share ideas with the chef and ask all the questions they may have about the food that is prepared here. The residents know where our fruit and produce comes from and our bread there's is no secerets here!!

What makes the meeting even better is that Chef pus together a sweet treat to start everything off right!

 

 

Everyone meets in the Coca Cola room
