A very nice choral group to the community. They had sang a bunch of different songs that come from all over world. They brought different time of drums, ukulele, flutes all sorts of different instruments that makes the music really come alive. The residents really had a great time listening to them and hearing some old songs from their past. Whether they lived in the countries the song came from or not they loved it.

Better Bones & Balance
Two days a week we have Cindy O' Brien come in and instruct the Better Bones and Balance class. This class help promote good health and overall balance. Which is one of the first thing that most senior citzens have the most difficult time. The best part is this class is all done from the comfort of a chair. It gets harder for senior citizens to do just the normal on the ground excercises. So with having a chair that most excercises are able to be down with gives them a extra comfort about doing the standing excercises. All the residents that are coming to this class has seen a very dramatic change with their balance and stability and overall feeling physically the best at their ages.
