🍀 Today we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀

We had a blast listening to Irish jigs and folk songs while enjoying some favorite Irish beverages and snacks. Guinness and Baileys were popular choices, along with cupcakes topped with delicious green cream cheese frosting.

Our residents are truly amazing, and we can’t express how thankful we are for everyone who joined us. It was also wonderful to see a few family members stop by to visit, share some snacks, and spend time together.

Thank you to all of our residents and families—we love you! 💚🍻

🍪 A Sweet Visit for National Girl Scout Day! 🍪

Yesterday we celebrated National Girl Scout Day with a special visit from Orono Girl Scout Troop 48159. The girls generously donated cookies for our residents, and our staff also joined in by contributing and purchasing cookies to support the troop.

These intergenerational moments are truly priceless. Seeing the smiles, conversations, and connections between the girls and our residents brought so much joy to everyone involved.

Moments like this remind us how meaningful it is when generations come together to share kindness, laughter, and of course… Girl Scout cookies! 🍪💚

Thank you, Troop 48159, for making our day a little sweeter!

Our community kicked off the festivities a little early with a fun Irish party! Residents enjoyed making Shamrock shakes, playing St. Patrick’s Day word games, and singing along to classic Irish music together. Of course, there was plenty of laughter and great fellowship all around.

We even had some fun coming up with our leprechaun names! Michaela’s leprechaun name is Musical McMuffin. ☘️

What would your leprechaun name be? 🍀

Our residents had a blast with a fun game of “Pickle Ball!” 🥒 Residents used a pickle on a stick to try and knock over a stack of cups—lots of laughs and friendly competition all around!

Moments like these are what make our community so special.
