We are so excited to celebrate Julia as our Core Value Leader of the Month at The Pines at Rutland! In just a year and a half, she has made a lasting impact—earning this recognition from her peers for always showing up for her residents when they need her most.

We had a “dip-lightful” time celebrating National Chip and Dip Day! 🥨🥑

Our dip contest brought out some delicious creativity and plenty of laughs with one important rule: no double dipping! It was a great way to come together, enjoy some friendly competition, and share a fun moment as a team.

Safe to say… this is a tradition we’ll be bringing back next year!

Duct tape art turned into something extra special. Residents had a great time crafting rose-topped pens, adding their own creative touch to each one and sharing plenty of smiles along the way. 🌹

A fun and colorful way to get creative together.
