What a great day at Delmar Gardens of O’Fallon! It was a genuine pleasure to spend time, have fun, and mingle with the wonderful residents in our community.

Our BrightStar table was all set up, and our Community Liaison, Boland, was so thankful to have her sister volunteer, making sure everyone who needed help got it. Especially a 104-year-old, very competitive lady who couldn't hear the calls very well. She came to win!

We are already looking forward to our next visit!
