Hello Everyone...
At this time I would like to give a big shout out to all of the generous, giving individuals who made the 2nd Annual Adopt A Resident program this year an absolute success. Without all of you, the citizens and local businesses here in Carl Junction, and the surrounding area none of this would've been possible. You have no idea how many smiles you put on these residents faces. And I've never heard so many oohs and aahs in one room as I did on December 23, 2022 when we held the Carl Junction Residential Care Christmas Party. Our residents were all greeted by Santa and his elves as they each received a bundle of gifts to unwrap. Because of you all who reached out to me about adopting one or more individuals this Christmas, you made 30 residents Holiday a little brighter this season.
When I first introduced my idea of the "Adopt A Resident " Program last year I had no idea I would receive the response I did, then and now. I appreciate each and every one of you who in some way contributed to this year's Christmas at the facility. Whether it was through an adoption, dropping off stocking stuffers, donating of Bingo prizes, cards for all of the residents to receive or you came and gave your time to entertain by singing or dance. We want you to know we appreciate all of you, and again from the bottom of our hearts, we say THANK YOU.
Wishing all of you a Safe & Happy 2023,
