Wow, where did August go? My, how time really does fly when you’re having fun! Hopefully, September will put an end to our hot, sticky, and hazy summer. We can finally begin to look forward to cooler weather. Autumn will officially begin on September 22nd. This is my favorite season. I enjoy the changing of the fall colors. This month also marks our ten year anniversary of the opening of The Paragon.
These next couple of months will be a perfect time to go on outings or trips before it turns too cold. Let’s start thinking about where our next adventure will be!
The week of September 12th-18th is National Assisted Living Week. As you will notice we have a few special or different activities planned during that week to celebrate. I encourage each of you to come join the fun. Just to name a couple of these specialty activities, we have included a Health Fair sponsored by Wellington Park of Owensboro on the 14th beginning at 1:30. Also on the 16th, Town and Country Florist is coming to do a flower arranging workshop. On Monday September 20th following National Assisted Living Week we have rescheduled our trip to Carolyn's place at the lake for a cookout and a pontoon ride. Thirteen residents signed up for this outing before when we had to cancel and I hope to see that number again. Make sure to mark these dates on your calendar!
Just a little reminder about your recyclable items, we have a container for aluminum cans in the Ice Cream Parlor. Also, if you would continue to put your newspapers beside your trash can the RA’s will pick those up for recycling. This is our way of giving back to our community. Thanks so much in advance for your cooperation.
Until next month,
Sherry
