Making artificial poppies is a long-standing tradition and today we all pitched in to help the local Veterans Affairs assemble poppies. Close to 400 poppies were assembled and we had a good time sharing stories and remembering our own experiences with the symbolic poppy.

Today at Clark Meadows, Katherine McGrath lead the Music History series with a new topic.  Great Conductors, such as Marin Alsop, Lorin Verncove Maazel, Herbert von Karajan, Juliette Nadia Boulanger, and Fritz Reiner were featured.  So interesting to learn about the different styles and what all those hand gestures and arm motions mean!

Clark Meadows Drum Circle

It was a quiet Friday afternoon recently when Katherine McGrath, Music Therapist, brought out a variety of interesting instruments.  After a discussion with residents about each one, an absolutely awesome drum circle broke out!  " A drum circle is any group of people playing handdrums and percussion in a circle".  Led by Katherine, the drummers followed her lead with the pace as well as the volume level of the drumming!  Thank you Katherine!
