Weird Food Pairings?! Weird Food Pairings?! Wine, fruit, juice, ice cream! YUM! KristenMeyer / Wednesday, January 17, 2024 0 7620 So, I'm telling tails out of school. Our residents often get chatting in the living room about ideas for our socials. One of our residents thought it might be fun to do unusual food pairings. They didn't expect us to actually follow through. When our Program Manager came into the living room with a bag of Baby Ruth Bars and a squeeze bottle of mustard they were astounded! I came on the scene late wondering what they were all laughing about. Everyone was giving it a go and enjoying the strange combination of sweet and spicy. That was just the beginning. Our Nurse Coordinator said, "game on" and she proposed the following week that we try pickle and peanut butter sandwiches! The next week our Case Manager suggested doritos and ice cream! Today, before our happy hour Melissa served up ice cream with wine and fruit! Rave reviews all around the room! Read more

Lynne Standish / Friday, May 1, 2020 / Categories: Clark Meadows Blog "The Marathon Man" For the past 20 years or more, our Marathon Man, has been walking for exercise. Participating in the National Veterans Golden Age Games, he took home the gold in power walking! After moving to Clark Meadows, he continued to exercise at the VAMC in Canandaigua, using the pool and also walking the track. With the onset of Covid-19, his trips to the VA have been curtailed. Not one to sit down for long, this gentleman started walking the halls and the nature path around the community, weather permitting. Residents and staff alike wanted to know how many miles he was walking. With a pedometer attached, and a starting day of Friday, April 24th through Friday, May 1st, our Marathon Man, 88 years of age, completed 29 miles! From our gold medal winner.....he states, " The whole idea is to encourage others to keep moving if they see me walking. It's about keeping healthy in our community."
