Clark Meadows residents were out on a bird walk with Dawne Gould's daughter, Kathy Kirsch.  Kathy is an expert bird watcher who can identify the bird calls, bird sightings and bird behaviors as well as plant species.  We enjoyed our natural surroundings with our own conservation expert.  She'll be back on May 19th for another bird walk.  Thank you Kathy!

Last Fall, Dorothy (Dot) Lander collected a box of colorful leaves and sent them to her daughter, Janet, who is a 1^st grade teacher in Florida. Janet's students, many of whom had never been exposed to the beautiful Fingerlakes colors, responded in a most thoughtful way.  They drew pictures and composed letters. Dot was so surprised and overcome with joy when she opened the package. 

These pictures and letters have been displayed in the CM living room this week for all CM residents, staff, families and visitors to enjoy! A big thank you to Dot for sharing with all of us.  We have been in awe of the thoughful messages, the drawings, and the amazing penmanship coming from such young children.
