The 10th Annual Chef & Sip Challenge was held yesterday at the Hotel Canandaigua. It was presented by the Canandaigua Kiwanis Club.  

Our Chefs, Daniel Cobb and Julie Woloson offered up Yankee Pot Roast and Mashed Potatoes garnished with puff pastry/carmalized onion & chive.  It was a feast for the senses and they came home with the prize of Most Creative!  Congratulations to these talented chefs!

Lots of familiar faces in the photos.  You will see some of our wait staff, Matt Pelton and Kaylee White, out enjoying the day along with retired Executive Director, Aimee Ward. The venue was beautiful, the competition was fierce, but there was great camaraderie among the many talented chefs.  There is so much talent in this region of the Finger Lakes and we are fortunate to have some of that talent right here at Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows.

The story of the Mercury 7

This week, one of our residents presented a very interesting story about Space activity for the last 60 years.  His PowerPoint was presented to others who were captivated during the hour long talk.  Starting with President Kennedy's challenge to the country in 1961 that "before this decade is out, we will land a man on the Moon and return him safely to the Earth", the lecture went on to review the country's response to this challenge.  Starting with the story of the Mercury 7, the original class of 7 astronauts that led to the Mercury Project.  This was followed by several more classes of astronauts to include the Gemini Project, followed by the Apollo Project.  The 11th Apollo flight culminated in meeting the challenge with Neil Armstrong walking on the moon and the safe return of the crew of 3 astronauts safely back to earth. 

Today we have the International Space Station that has been in Earth orbit for more than 20 continuous years of operation.  The residents are still talking about this lecture.  Thank you for your hard work!
