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!

The more I live, the more I learn!

Residents from our community are continuing to learn with this years Great Decisions program.  This program is America's largest discussion program on world affairs and is brought to us by the Foreign Policy Association.  The program model involves reading the Great Decisions briefing book, watching the documentary film series and meeting in a discussion group to discuss the most critical global issues facing America today.

Each week a different resident is asked to prepare an introduction for the topic.  The film is shown and interesting discussion points follow.  From Climate Change and Outer Space to Russia and the United States, there is sure to be a thought provoking topic for all.
