Poppy

The Flower of Remembrance

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!

Winter Olympics

Winter Olympics

Our opening ceremony for the winter Olympics was a huge success and certainly a team effort. 

We were honored to welcome Senator Pam Helming and coach Pamela Warren who both gave informative presentations regarding the local Olympians competing this year.  Our very own Al Johnson wowed the audience with facts and photos of the host country, South Korea, and brought everyone up to speed with the sporting events.  Katherine Duffy blessed the Olympians with a personalized prayer and CEO Michael Stapleton shared a few words on what the Olympics mean to him.

Our taste buds were taken on a world tour with an array of foods from South Korea, Germany and Japan, just to mention a few. 

We thank our residents for participating in the flag procession and for the children who came to sing.  

GO TEAM U.S.A!
