Hello Facebook fans! We are at day 2 of National Assisted Living Week's "Ageless Adventure" line up! Today was our 'Upta Camp' theme day with lots of surprises including s'mores on the patio and a visit with Age Friendly S**o for neighborhood bicycle rides with For Kids Only Private Pre K. The childrens' smiling faces partnering with one of our residents to take a ride around the block together was priceless. What a feel-good activity! Everyone truly enjoyed it.

Earlier, we played classic style bingo with the good ol' fashion ball cage. The nostalgic sound of that wheel was everything. Congrats to all the winners and especially to our caller guests ALTRUSA INTERNATIONAL OF BIDDEFORD-SACO for their visit and the scrumptious treats they provided everyone.

Bingo and bicycle rides can be enjoyed at any age and of course, who doesn't love an ooey gooey delicious s'more? Today's take-out was brought to us by Pizza By Michael. Each resident got to order their own signature pizza. Brian and company did an exceptional job coordinating this and employees were thrilled to get a slice or two as well. You can't have an "Ageless Adventure" week without a pizza party! πŸ₯³ πŸ•

Are we doing good so far with this year's national theme? Wait until what is in store for tomorrow!

Happy National Assisted Living Week where each day is a celebration of our residents and employees. This year's theme is "Ageless Adventure". We have chosen countless activities that can be enjoyed at any age. Whether you're 9 or 90, life is full of spontaneity and joy. Today we welcomed magician ventriloquist Dana Perkins for his final show. Residents absolutely loved it. We gifted him a special retirement photo collage signed by the residents which he appreciated so much. Next we feasted with one of our annual favorite take-out restaurants, Wok N Roll. We will all be dreaming of their delicious crab rangoons and made to perfection egg rolls. We then welcomed positive elder lecture presenter, Magdalana Grace Siegel for her dynamic, "Live, Learn and Pass it On" series. Such a treat to listen to her insights and wisdom. The fun didn't end there as Kelly's Ice Cream Truck pulled in to serve up some smiles. Thank you everyone for helping to make today special.

Hop on to Facebook EVERY DAY this week to follow what we're up to throughout the week. If you thought today was exciting, wait until you see what we've got prepared for tomorrow. 😍

Hello 𝓕𝓡π“ͺ𝓼𝓱 𝓑π“ͺ𝓬𝓴 𝓕𝓻𝓲𝓭π“ͺ𝔂!
From a tasty Labor Day traditional noon BBQ to plenty of entertainment, this week proved to be another grand success at Wardwell.

The highlight of our week was our final trip to Pier French Fries At Old Orchard Beach for the season. We are so appreciative of the owners Al and Tiffany and their team’s hospitality. Even a gray day didn’t stop us from enjoying the best fries in Maine with plenty of vinegar. Wardwell employees enjoyed the fries we brought back. Can’t thank you all enough. See you next spring.

Residents enjoyed group crosswords, decorating for the autumn season, fascinating facts about the world, Yoga with Mindy, Bingo, exercise blitz, Helping Hands, Mass with Fr. Felix, and communion with Rejeanne. Tremendous thanks to our guest guitarists, Rob Duquette and Todd Glacy.

Please enjoy our monthly newsletter and calendar featuring the Limelight story of Rachel in Activities.

See you next time.

Happy 𝓕𝓡π“ͺ𝓼𝓱 𝓑π“ͺ𝓬𝓴 𝓕𝓻𝓲𝓭π“ͺ𝔂!

Another wonderful week at Wardwell. We had several visitors, Lori from Affinity for meditation and coloring, guitar and laughs with Ann Sparling, Joel and Wendy for their prayer group, bicycle rides with the volunteers from S**o Cycles, and Unum guests for Veterans Table.

Our monthly Wardwell Diner’s Club brought us to Gonneville Farm Ice Cream and Homestyle Cookin for lunch. Absolutely delicious and gracious food portions. We always like taking a trip or two to enjoy their good country cooking.

In addition to our signature Helping Hands with Brian, Wheel of Fortune and exercise blitz with Rachel, co****le on the veranda, trivia, Bingo and our weekly Left Center Right, we also had another intriguing poetry and pie reading with the most delightful lemon meringue slivers.

The highlight of our week was certainly the double rainbow over the community. Such a sight to take in.
Have a great Labor Day weekend.

Tremendous thanks to the support of our new Unum connection. Today a few of their veteran affiliates joined us for our monthly Veterans Table. The hour was well received. Unum Army veterans, Aaron and Tiffany shared their military stories, while Jennifer shared her father's. Resident Army veterans Bob and Carl contributed to the conversation of their experiences. The residents were very pleased. Another meaningful gathering for the books. Well done Unum.

What a positive morning. Thank you Lori of Affinity Care of Maine. Meditative coloring was a perfect way to start the week. Per resident request, the group enjoyed the instrumentals of Yanni. Everyone talked and reminisced and laughed in between the quiet tranquil moments of the music. "You know what I love most about visiting is the feeling of friendship and how we all nurture one another." - Lori Maxwell.

Thank you so much Lori. Residents were so fond of today's activity that they requested it for next month. We hope to have even more happy participants.

Happy 𝓕𝓡π“ͺ𝓼𝓱 𝓑π“ͺ𝓬𝓴 𝓕𝓻𝓲𝓭π“ͺ𝔂!
Its been a very special week. The highlight was our visit with the little ones of For Kids Only Pre-K. We also enjoyed line dancing with Debra Brundage, new music entertainment with Mr. Doug, and saxophone with the talented Darren Whitney. Residents got together for an arts and crafts class with Carolyn. They did a most interesting session to create window decorations and filled out messages of encouragement to patients at New England Rehab. The stars will be delivered soon. Thank you to community outreach liaison, Deb Greenwich, for helping to facilitate this from the heart project. Giving back to others and being of service is our specialty. In addition to Bingo and Trivia, we also played Left Center Right with Connie, Wordle and enjoyed one another’s company outside for the evening Luau with Don and Alex on the veranda.

We had a wonderful Monday Funday. It began with a visit from For Kids Only Private Pre K for story time and laughter. Thank you to our resident readers, Lorraine and Claudette. It was heartfelt and enjoyable. We had two concerts, one in the afternoon with saxophonist, Darren Whitney and later an evening luau with Don and Alex of Mule Fuel. Perfect weather to be outdoors. We also watched our Monday documentary, an intriguing nature film about lions. Stay tuned for more Wardwell happenings this week as we stay busy and vibrant.
