This beautiful group of handmade dolls are getting ready to meet their new friends. A group of Wake Robin residents partnered with a local food shelf where 133 families signed up requesting food, clothing, and toys for the holiday season. Residents crafted these dolls – from their yarn hair to their colorful pantaloons - to gift as a part of their donation. With any luck, the recipients will adore their new buddies just as much as the residents enjoyed creating them!

The Wake Robin raised garden beds are still vibrant and overflowing. Every year, residents can sign up to “rent” a space in the community gardens for the growing season. Residents plant anything from vegetables, to herbs, to flowers of all shapes and sizes. There are beds designated just for the Flower Committee; their colorful blooms used in arrangements found throughout the Community Center. Living in a retirement community does not mean giving up your green thumb!
