"Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have ever made a difference in the world. A veteran doesn't have that problem." -Ronald Reagan

While Veteran's Day has passed, we want our veterans to know we will always appreciate the sacrifices they have made for us. A special thank you to Mike, John, and Julian for their years of service to our country!

A special shout-out to our employees and their kids who came out to celebrate Halloween with us!

Our residents had a blast celebrating Halloween! They had almost as much fun passing out candy to the kids as they did eating it themselves! 👻

We are excited to announce the start of the Adoptive Grandparent Program with the 4th graders of Adrian Elementary School.

The students will get to take part of activities with residents.
One of those activities will be making butter.

But we don't have enough jars to go around for each student. we are looking for small jelly jars (with lids) or any small jar about 1/2pint size
If you have some you are not using anymore and want to get rid of them, please send them this way.
We are in need by Friday November 14th.

You may drop them off at Sunrise View Assisted Living or call Deb in activities 507-827-0972 or 507-483-2580.

We're so grateful for all the support from the community. We couldn't do all this without your help!!

Thank You!

We are looking for volunteers for some up and coming project.
July 26th @ 1:30pm.
We are doing the “Then Feed Just One” project.
We will be making a food packet that will feed one child for 6 meals.
These are being sent to children around the world.
For more information you may check out their website at
www.thenfeedjustone.org

This is a company based out of LeMars, Iowa.

We will have many “stations” set up in the dining room and people will walk around with a bag and someone puts a certain amount in the bag and then they move to the next station until they’ve gone through every station. Then they get weighed and sealed.

This should hopefully only take an hour.
Many hands make light work.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The other project is a craft project.
July 29th at 1:30pm
We will be making a wall hanging for outside the resident’s door.
These are done with 12in round wood, stencils and paint.
The more hands we have the faster it will go

The goal is to make one of these for every season.
All volunteers are welcome. Have your older grandkids with you, bring them along.
The residents love having people around.
Also, if you have any stencils that are summer based and would fit a 12in round board, that you're no longer using we'd gladly take them off your hands.

Coffee will to follow after the crafts.

Please contact Deb in Activities

If I'm not available to answer the phone, please leave a voicemail. I will get back to you at my earliest convenience.

I had some help getting our flowers planted. A little later than usual but, better late than never.

Sharing a few things that we have done this month so far with the residents in the activity department. Everything from balloon volleyball to planting in our raised beds when the weather was much warmer. We have many gardners who love to raise vegetable's and flowers. Still have more vegetables to plant once the rain stops and things get a little more dry.
We're a little short on the flower part. But hopefully as we go along we can snag a few plants here and there.
A huge shout out to Adrian Building Center for the donation of the building materals and Darrell Nielson for the time and effort to build those wonderful raised beds for us. The residents really love them!!

Yesterday the residents started flowers and vegetables for our raised beds.

We started Sweet peas, Marigolds, Salvia, cherry tomatoes, sun gold tomatoes, early girl tomatoes and cucumbers. We also plan on using one of our raised beds to start strawberries.

We will be planting radishes and carrots within the week.
They're excited for the fresh veggies and flowers.
