We want to thank the amazing ladies of The Hills Are Alive Chorus!

These talented women always bring so much joy and laughter when they visit. They filled our community with beautiful gospel music and even shared a few fun Christmas carols to help kick off the holiday season.

We're so grateful for the smiles, songs and sweet spirit they bring each time! 💜

We had an absolute blast today at our Halloween Carnival! Our residents enjoyed spooky cupcakes and punch, laughed at some funny Halloween jokes, and even wrapped a few friends up like mummies! 🧻🕸️

There was plenty of dancing, carnival games, and of course—lots of delicious candy! 🍬🍭

Lunch was frightfully fun too — spaghetti and “eyeballs” (meatballs), skeleton veggies, and homemade peanut butter thumbprint spider cookies! 🕷️🍝

It was a spooktacular day filled with laughter, treats, and great company. 🧡

A huge round of applause to our amazing Dietary Manager, Tonya Garber, who always goes the extra mile. The Johnson City Senior Center gave a wonderful presentation on healthy living, while guests enjoyed Tonya's famous homemade strawberry salad with special dressing, grilled chicken, and scrumptious blueberry scones. We love sharing our tasty creations with the community.
