We had a wonderful discussion group at the McGregor home today with the senior residents and guests form the Board of Developmental Disabilities. We sang songs then talked about the memories or opinions we had about the songs. We learned new things about each other, and learned how much we have in common!

We had a fun class today at the Homewood Residence with our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities. We learned about gazebos, pergolas, trellises and arbors. Then we built scale models of a pergola. The construction teams did a great job, and they got to take their mini-pergolas home with them.

What a treat to be invited to play and sing at a clients’ 85th birthday party! I sang some of the birthday boy’s favorites, including Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye and The Supremes. What an honor it was to share in his special day!

It was a day of relaxation and education today at The Homewood Residence. We gave sample massage treatments to the residents and also educated them about he benefits of massage. Guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities joined us, for a morning of health and learning.

 We had a wonderful, interactive music activity at the Warrensville Community Apartments today. We sang songs that purposely invoked an opinion, emotion or memory; and after each song the group shared what it brought up for them. We learned a lot about each other, and realized how much we have in common!
