Dorothy Lander Shares Letters and Pictures from Floridian First Graders!

Sharing Finger Lakes Foliage with Young Floridians turns into a Treasure of Letters and Drawings!

KristenMeyer 0 1716

Last Fall, Dorothy (Dot) Lander collected a box of colorful leaves and sent them to her daughter, Janet, who is a 1st grade teacher in Florida. Janet's students, many of whom had never been exposed to the beautiful Fingerlakes colors, responded in a most thoughtful way.  They drew pictures and composed letters. Dot was so surprised and overcome with joy when she opened the package. 

These pictures and letters have been displayed in the CM living room this week for all CM residents, staff, families and visitors to enjoy! A big thank you to Dot for sharing with all of us.  We have been in awe of the thoughful messages, the drawings, and the amazing penmanship coming from such young children.

Tai-Chi started this morning at Ferris Hills

Today was the first day of Tai-Chi and fourteen residents joined in to check it out.  Julie Charles, a Dining Services Associate, and the class instructor, has studied Tai-Chi for 20 years; two of which she lived in China.  She explains that "Tai-Chi is a relaxed martial art that is excellent for your flexibility, balance and your overall health."  One of the participants stated that this class "looks like it's going to be wonderful!." 

Interested?  We invite other residents to join in the fun every Friday morning at 10 am in the Vista Lounge.
