The Third Annual Friends and Family Picnic was attended by a crowd of over 300 this year! Every year the picnic grows in popularity, fun, and friends. Guests were "Home on the Range" as they were greeted by a covered chuck wagon where the Ox Roast and Smoked Turkey was served! 
Pam, Jennifer, and Darlene posed full of Juniper Spirit and await the crowds of guests as they arrived. 
14 gift baskets were assembled and raffled in order to raise money for the Veteran's Wall of Honor in the Hallway at Juniper Village. The proceeds will go towards a Recognition Plaque for the Wall of Honor. Each Veteran living at Juniper Village is recognized for their service to our Country.
As the afternoon progressed, Ted Mallick played the banjo for guests as Residents and Families gathered near the "horses" and "cowboys" for a fun portrait.
Focusing on Staying Connected, is a part of our goal each month as we plan our Connections events for our Residents. As you receive your Newsletters each month, please take special note to all of the interactive opportunities Juniper provides for families and friends. From our campfire nights on special Fridays to support groups throughout the month, we want you to feel at home. Don't forget about our Alive in All Seasons Friends and Family Nights the Second Thursday of Every month! We welcome you join us. If you have any special interests or talents that you would like to share with our community, please contact our Connections Director, Pam Mitchell, to inquire about participating and volunteering in your own Connections program.
