Well, the weather outside was frightful, but the band, the company, the treats and Santa sure were DELIGHTFUL!
There is a lot of appreciation to share: Thank you to all of our guests who braved the snow to join us for our annual Christmas Celebration! Thank you to the Kensington team members who work magic all year long but really show up during the holidays. Thank you to The Galesburg Jammers for another joyful performance. And of course, thank you to good ol’ Saint Nick - it wouldn’t be Christmas without you!
The Kensington team, residents, friends and families would like to wish everyone a safe, warm, and happy holiday season!

The residents and employees at The Kensington took a donation of food, blankets and other supplies to the Knox County Humane Society today. A couple of our ladies even made hand sewn cat pads. Hopefully, while at the shelter, the many adoptable furry friends available will find comfort in some of these items!
