Spirits are still high!

Spirits are still high!

Spirits are still flying high at Ferris Hills and our residents are making this the place to be during Covid-19! 

When Claire Watson, Resident Services Manager, sent out a message to residents about doing 'Spirit Week' we were not too sure how it would go...but we were very happy to see so many people join in on the fun and have a giggle.  Monday started with crazy hat/hair (very easy to do these days), Tuesday was anything animal, Wednesday people wore their favorite color, Halloween made an appearance on Thursday and Friday was fancy/formal. 

Social distancing is becoming the new norm with people staying 6-ft from one another and wearing the latest trendy mask when needed.  

Our gazebo area is ready for the nice weather with the patio furniture spaced out and the flower boxes ready for planting.  We just need Mother Nature to jump on board and give us a break.

Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows Men's Group enjoys presentation by Tom Mees on Sonnenberg History

Ferris Hills resident Tom Mees recently gave a fascinating presentation on the history of Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park to our men's group.  With a deep appreciation for local history and a true gift for storytelling, Tom had the audience captivated by his knowledge of this local gem.

In addition to sharing historical insights, Tom enocuraged anyone interested in volunteering at Sonnenberg to get involved - help is always welcome!

One interesting question came up during the discussion: How did Sonnenberg get its name? Tom explained that "Sonnenberg," meaning Sunny Hill in German, was the postal name of the property when it was purchased.  Fittingly, the estate sits at the crest of Fort Hill Avenue.

Tom also shared the story of how Fred and Mary Thompson met: at Mary's father's farewell banquet ball in Albany, NY.  At the time, her father was serving as Governor of New York State.  It was love at first sight.  Just six months later, Fred and Mary were married in the Clark family home, located behind the United Church on Gibson Street.
