It’s Chip & Dip Day! 🥳 We sampled Ruffles and tortilla chips with a variety of tasty dips. The classic French onion dip was the clear favorite, while bacon cheddar and queso battled it out for a close second. So much fun (and flavor) in every bite!

The squirrels over at Pioneer Park have been braving the chilly winds the past few days for their favorite treat — peanuts! 🐿️❄️ Our residents absolutely love watching their furry visitors scurry, play, and snack right outside.

We’re currently accepting monetary donations to our Activity Department to help us keep the squirrel buffet stocked. If you’d like to support a little extra joy (for both the squirrels and our residents!), donations can be dropped off at the ULC front desk.

Thank you for helping us keep the wildlife — and the smiles — coming!
