Volunteer Recognition Day

 We have missed seeing our volunteers in person this past year. We would like to thank all of our volunteers for all of the creative ways they have shared their talent with us during this time. All of our Residents have enjoyed your talents; cards, gifts, music, virtual concerts, Zooming current events, Zooming spiritually and virtual pet sharing.

We could have not made it through this without all your hard work and dedication.

Today we shared this virtual concert presented by Aragon High School where are Residents could watch in their apartments or like Bill below wanted to see on the big T.V. in our Recreation Room. 

This is just a sample of what wonderful volunteers we have in our local community. 

 

 Thank you again volunteers for all of your contributions. We are grateful for your commitment you have all shared during this time!!!
