"The Ghost of Roseland" is coming to Canandaigua Lake!

Local artist, Benji Carr, was on site to show his latest project to our residents.  The Ghost of Roseland sculpture is his latest commissioned piece.  He brought the model to show us how it will look and explained that there will be moving parts.  What a thrill for our staff and residents to get this up close and personal presentation of such an exciting project.  The discussion brought out a lot of reminiscing about Roseland Park.  So many of our residents grew up in Canandaigua and Rosleand Park was a big part of their youth.  The art reflects the history of our town and the importance that the park played.  Pat Rini Rohrer, gallery owner and Art Tuppen, Canandaigua local, were two of our enthusiastic audience participants.  They are photographed here with the artist.

Social Social Distancing!

What exactly does that look like?

Social social distancing..What exactly does that look like?  It's difficult to capture in pictures because we are spread so far apart, but the warmth and love of our community is stronger than ever. 

A typical day starts with a reading of the morning news in groups of 10 or less sitting far apart from one another.  Then, those who choose go to exercise class.  Today, we had two morning options; 1.) Paint class where we painted a waterfall (more to come in future blogs about our resident artists) and 2.) Reading Club where we read a few chapters from "Water for Elephants."  This afternoon, we celebrated with a Fiesta themed happy hour.  Our pinata named "Corona" didn't fare so well.  Our happy hours take place throughout the building in small gatherings where we can sit 6 feet apart.  It's up to the staff to circulate and serve refreshments.  Today, we got a little rowdy...it was a Fiesta after all! 

This is a glimpse into a typical day at Clark Meadows.  We've been social distancing for quite a while now and it has become a habit that we know is extremely important if we are to stay COVID19 free!
