"Reading is to the mind, like exercise is to the body."

A number of Ferris Hills residents have been working hard to reorganize their library. They are sorting through books, and donating those that haven't been checked out in many years. New books have arrived and are organized by fiction, non-fiction, poetry, etc.  There is a special section for magazines, and also paperback books. 

These worker bees noticed that some of the book shelves were in need of extra support.  All they had to do is call on the Ferris Hills woodshop for the remedy!  Measurements were taken and shelf support dividers were made to resolve the issue!  Thanks to a kind donation, we even have (5) Kindles available to rent! 

Stop by soon and check out the many positive changes in the library.  Don't forget to thank the library ladies for their hard work!

The Barbie Movie

What is it about the Barbie Movie that is creating so much excitement?

Ok.  So we clearly had a lot of fun showing the Barbie Movie in Rayburn Hall on Friday.  The pre-party was a hoot!  The energy our residents brought to the event was palpable.

It's a fun movie, but since I'm blogging on a website for a Senior Community, I thought I might dig deeper and my attention went to the bench scene.  Academy award winning, fashion designer, Ann Roth, meets Barbie on a bench where Barbie looks at this elderly woman and says, "you're beautiful," and Ann Roth responds, "I know it."  There it is!!!  Women talking to each other through generations.  Barbie's decision to leave Barbieland and embrace the discomforts of the human experience and to see beauty in aging are some of the themes in the movie.  

There was magic in the air on friday as we drank pink cocktails, ate pink popcorn, and enjoyed each other as modern women living in challenging times.

A Spooktacular Show

The Players of Ontario County Arts Council visit Ferris Hills

Reader’s Theater performed by The Players of Ontario County Arts Council put on a Spooktacular show last Sunday.

We were honored to welcome the group back for a second time and the audience was not disappointed! 

Our residents and members of the public enjoyed listening to the eerie tales and had a chance to win a selection of raffle prizes.

Funds raised support the OCAC scholarship and grant programs.  We look forward to hosting more great shows in the future.

Manipulation, Moonshine, and Murder

By Valarie Veanes Upson

A lively discussion from this new auther, Valarie Veanes Upson, captivated us as she uncovered the history of her grandmother's tragic past.  We learned more about life during the Great Depression and what people had to do to survive. 

Apples, Apples, All Around!

While Foraging at Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows we found an Apple Tree!

Delicious feral apples growing on our property!  Apple sauce, apple crisp, apple pie, tarte au pomme?  Anyone?  They're not ready yet so stay tuned.
