What do you do when it’s too hot to go outside? We bring out our competitive spirit and play a few rounds of table cup bowling. The rules are simple: knock all the cups off the table before the other player. The winner moves on to the next round. Ken was a big winner this time around. He brought his A-game out, especially against our Program Coordinator Monika, who joined in on the action with Irma, one of our Care Partners. 🏆😂 It’s safe to say… this game is a keeper!
