The True Meaning of Christmas The True Meaning of Christmas KristenMeyer / Friday, January 3, 2025 0 6858 Since the beginning of December, so much has happened at Clark Meadows. It was hard to keep up with our activity’s coordinator and her team. They planned so many wonderful activities and events. The magic of the holidays was brought to Clark Meadows in a special way this year with this new team of creative energy. We have our fun traditions at Clark Meadows, but every year there are moments created that make each year memorable. It is a time where we do miss those who aren’t with us anymore, but with the help of our activities team we created a lot of busyness, but most importantly joy. Before we knew it, it was Christmas Eve. On December 24th some of us gathered for a candlelight service. Residents from Clark Meadows and Ferris Hills participated with readings and musical performances. We turned on our battery-operated candles as we sang the closing hymn, Silent Night. It reminded me of candlelight services I attended as a child, but this one was different. This community touches me as I’m sure it does many of our staff. The kindness, beauty, and truth that we experience from our elderly give us courage to face life cheerfully. It is a privilege to work here and participate in the daily lives of our residents. I took that candle with me that night and it lighted my way home. Read more

Margaret / Tuesday, September 5, 2017 / Categories: Ferris Hills Events, Senior Living Community Events, Ferris Hills Blog Catching A Ball Game, Creating Memories Residents of Ferris Hills enjoyed all the peanuts, cracker jacks, and at-bats they could handle during a field trip to attend a Rochester Red Wings baseball game. The Red Wings played the Buffalo Bisons on this warm Tuesday night in a game which proved to be very evenly matched – keeping the crowd engaged through all of the innings. The game was at home for the Red Wings at Frontier Field in downtown Rochester, NY – about a 45 minute drive fromFerris Hills. The Rochester Red Wings are considered a Class AAA minor league team which has provided American’s Favorite Pastime to the greater Monroe County and Finger Lakes for over a century. Founded in 1899, it boasts the distinction of being the oldest continuously operating sports franchise in North America (below the major league level). As a mid-game surprise, baseball legend Steve Garvey was flown in to speak to the crowd. He was a former first-baseman for the L.A. Dodgers and the winner of the 1974 National League Most Valuable Player Award. He addressed the fans from center field, and his talk added to the enjoyment and enrichment of the evening.Ferris Hills residents were also able to be at a Red Wings game during a special time in their 2017 season – when they announced that they’ll become the Rochester Plates for one game only later this summer in August. Why the “Plates”? It’s a nod to Rochester’s famous Garbage Plate, an indulgent meal of mac salad, home fries, mean, and topped with special meat sauce and condiments. Special hats have been made to commemorate the occasion.After an enjoyable evening of competitive baseball, the Red Wings edged out the Buffalo Bisons, winning the game 4-3. The shuttle retuned allFerris Hills residents home in Canandaigua, satisfyingly exhausted and bellies full after a fun evening at the stadium.
