We are looking for volunteers for some up and coming project.
July 26th @ 1:30pm.
We are doing the “Then Feed Just One” project.
We will be making a food packet that will feed one child for 6 meals.
These are being sent to children around the world.
For more information you may check out their website at
www.thenfeedjustone.org

This is a company based out of LeMars, Iowa.

We will have many “stations” set up in the dining room and people will walk around with a bag and someone puts a certain amount in the bag and then they move to the next station until they’ve gone through every station. Then they get weighed and sealed.

This should hopefully only take an hour.
Many hands make light work.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The other project is a craft project.
July 29th at 1:30pm
We will be making a wall hanging for outside the resident’s door.
These are done with 12in round wood, stencils and paint.
The more hands we have the faster it will go

The goal is to make one of these for every season.
All volunteers are welcome. Have your older grandkids with you, bring them along.
The residents love having people around.
Also, if you have any stencils that are summer based and would fit a 12in round board, that you're no longer using we'd gladly take them off your hands.

Coffee will to follow after the crafts.

I had some help getting our flowers planted. A little later than usual but, better late than never.

Sharing a few things that we have done this month so far with the residents in the activity department. Everything from balloon volleyball to planting in our raised beds when the weather was much warmer. We have many gardners who love to raise vegetable's and flowers. Still have more vegetables to plant once the rain stops and things get a little more dry.
We're a little short on the flower part. But hopefully as we go along we can snag a few plants here and there.
A huge shout out to Adrian Building Center for the donation of the building materals and Darrell Nielson for the time and effort to build those wonderful raised beds for us. The residents really love them!!

Yesterday the residents started flowers and vegetables for our raised beds.

We started Sweet peas, Marigolds, Salvia, cherry tomatoes, sun gold tomatoes, early girl tomatoes and cucumbers. We also plan on using one of our raised beds to start strawberries.

We will be planting radishes and carrots within the week.
They're excited for the fresh veggies and flowers.

In regard to the angel tree, the main question I get is "what do they want or need". So here are a few ideas.
perfume, cologne, washcloths, hand towels, and bath towels (no white please) women's flannel pajamas, (sizes from Med-xxl), men's, flannel pajamas (sizes med-###l) gripper socks, slippers( sm-xl) decor for the room, warm throw blankets
Color by number books, Kleenex tissues, room air fresheners (no plug-in please).

These are just a few ideas.

We realize every has different abilities and we ask that you only do what you are comfortable with.
We are Very grateful for any help.

Thank you!

The residents have been busy making Christmas ornaments. These ornaments are for sale. and are now hanging on the Angel tree. There are little snowflake trees, jingle bell wreaths and wooden snowman.
All ornaments are $4 each.

Money earned will be used for an outing this month for the residents.

Just a quick reminder about the angel tree gifts. If all gifts could be dropped off no later than the 15th of December. This gives us time to go through everything and get them ready for the residents for the Christmas Party on the 19th.
