Last week, Kirkland Village, Bethlehem, PA, had one of those days that reminded us why community truly matters. The Life Plan Community's Memory Care Coordinator and Community Life Team went above and beyond to create a day filled with connection, laughter, and joy.

During the day: Health Center and Personal Care residents enjoyed their very own pumpkin patch right here on campus! 🎃 They wandered our marketplace courtyard, selecting their favorite pumpkins and decorating outside in the beautiful weather.

By night: our auditorium transformed into a Halloween Scare Fest! 👻 The space came alive with sweets, treats, snacks, and drinks for residents, staff, and families; the perfect way to unwind after trick-or-treating around the community and spreading smiles to everyone they met.

It’s a true reminder of the impact we make each day by creating spaces filled with joy, belonging, and connection. 🌟
