An amazing evening filled with great food and wonderful company. Everyone came out to enjoy our annual holiday dinner at the Salem Civic Center. As always the staff from the Civic Center were welcoming and so very kind. It looks like everyone really enjoyed themselves. A special thanks to our staff for all the extra work that goes into an evening like this. Happy Holidays and a great big thanks to everyone!!!

And some more pictures from our wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner.

11/14/2025

In the 1950s, every kindergartener knew the ritual: crayons down, lights low, and the soft hum of a record spinning through the air.
Naptime wasn’t a break — it was part of learning.

Teachers dimmed the lights, tiptoed between mats, and whispered, “Close your eyes.”
Kids rested, dreamed, or just stared at sunbeams dancing on the ceiling — learning something we’ve since forgotten: that rest is part of growth.

Then came the tests.
The “readiness.”
The race to get ahead.
By the 1980s, naps were gone. The mats rolled up. The lights stayed on.

Today, five-year-olds spend more time in structured lessons than third-graders did in the 1950s — no pauses, no quiet, no chance to just be.
And we wonder why they’re anxious.

Maybe it’s time we remembered what our teachers once knew:
You don’t grow by running all the time.
You grow in the stillness too.
Even big kids need naptime sometimes.

A fantastic Thanksgiving dinner tonight for the staff and their families. It was all delicious home cooked food prepared by the leadership members in appreciation for our hard working people.

They work hard day in and day out- taking excellent care of the individuals in our care. Without each of them - Key Living Options could not exist. Thank each of you and I hope you enjoyed the Thanksgiving Dinner in your honor!!!

As a final note- the pumpkin carving was judged and the first place was awarded to the spider carving. It was a fierce competition but a winner had to be selected so this spooky prize could be awarded. Congrats!!!
