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!

Dorothy Lander Shares Letters and Pictures from Floridian First Graders!

Sharing Finger Lakes Foliage with Young Floridians turns into a Treasure of Letters and Drawings!

KristenMeyer 0 2617

Last Fall, Dorothy (Dot) Lander collected a box of colorful leaves and sent them to her daughter, Janet, who is a 1st 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.

Geneva Music Festival - Classics and Romantics

Ferris Hills welcomed Violinist Geoffrey Herd, cellist Max Geissler and pianist Cameron Fuhrman to perform "Classics and Romantics". 

Mr. Herd joined the faculty at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville in August 2016. He is also a doctoral candidate at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music where he studied with Paul Kantor. Previous teachers included Ani Kavafian, William Preucil and David Updegraff.

Praised for his “superb artistry and beautiful sound,” cellist Max Geissler is currently pursuing his Doctor of Musical Arts degree at Rice University under the tutelage of Desmond Hoebig.  Mentors have included Catherine Lehr-Ramos of the Saint Louis Symphony and Michel Strauss during a semester of study abroad in Paris.   

Cameron Fuhrman is a pianist, teacher, and musical academic. Born in rural Central Oregon, she began taking piano lessons at age five and teaching them at age eleven. She is currently pursuing a DMA in Piano Performance and Literature under the tutelage of Natalya Antonova at the Eastman School of Music.
