Providing our participants with engaging activities each day is one of the most important things we do. Our participants love the many activities planned each day by Sarah Martin, our Executive Director and (Acting) Activities Manager, and it shows in their smiles. At the end of each week, Sarah posts the top things our participants did throughout the week on this page. We hope you enjoy reading her weekly update as much as we do!

How awesome is it to be welcomed into the day center by our friend, Pip!! Pet therapy at its finest means pulling up and being greeted by that sweet little face. Pip brings smiles, comfort, and joy to everyone she meets, making the start of the day even brighter. Who could ask for anything more than a furry friend ready to spread happiness?
Cooking with Teri was a sweet success this week. Our participants enjoyed whipping up a special treat by decorating cupcakes topped with adorable eagle designs. The activity sparked creativity, laughter, and plenty of delicious fun as everyone worked together to create their tasty masterpieces.
Our participants had a wonderful time this week making birdseed feeders for our flying friends. It was a meaningful project that connected us with the outdoors while creating something special.
We are incredibly thankful for our amazing volunteers!! This week Teresa led our participants for a drumming activity, and our participants had a blast. The energy, engagement, and fun she brought to the day were truly appreciated. Our volunteers make such a difference in the lives of those we serve, and we are so grateful for the tie, talents, and joy they share with us. Thank you for all you do!!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
Sarah Martin
