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.

Butterfly Release

We held a beautiful remembrance service for our residents and our loved ones lost. 

50 individual butterflies were released to honor those who have passed, but why butterflies?  Why not bubbles, balloons or planting a tree?  The butterfly’s journey through life is a perfect metaphor for our own spiritual journey, full of birth, life, death and transformation.  There is something special about them that inspires us, we smile when we see one.  They remind us that things are ever changing and there is beauty in that change.

According to an American Indian Legend, if anyone desires a wish to come true they must first capture a butterfly and whisper that wish to it.

Since a butterfly can make no sound, the butterfly cannot reveal the wish to anyone but the Great Spirit who hears and sees all.

In gratitude for giving the beautiful butterfly its freedom, the Great Spirit always grants the wish.

Others say that you can whisper ‘I love you’ to a butterfly and it will fly to heaven to deliver you message.

Those of you who released a butterfly donated to Family Promise of Ontario County, a not for profit charity that help low income families in Canandaigua.
