Making artificial poppies is a long-standing tradition and today we all pitched in to help the local Veterans Affairs assemble poppies. Close to 400 poppies were assembled and we had a good time sharing stories and remembering our own experiences with the symbolic poppy.

Today at Clark Meadows, Katherine McGrath lead the Music History series with a new topic.  Great Concuctors, such as Marin Alsop, Lorin Verncove Maazel, Herbert von Karajan, Juliette Nadia Boulanger, and Fritz Reiner were featured.  So interesting to learn about the different styles and what all those hand gestures and arm motions mean!

Clark Meadows had it's own "opening ceremony" for the 2022 Winter Olympics yesterday.  Lynne, Julie and Claire carried flags representing the USA, China and the Olympic Games. One of our residents even carried the torch!  Decorations included flags from many other countries, as well as a USA Hockey uniform! Terry and Rebecca represented China, Kristen represented the X-Country skiing event, and Lynne, the Ladies figure skating event.

Our music therapist, Katherine sang two beautiful songs and we all enjoyed Olympic videos, followed by a sampling of hors d'oeuvres from various countries.  A great time had by all who attended.  Now......Let the games begin!
