Winter Wonderland
It is snowing IN Waterford Senior Living. On
January 3rd 9 volunteers
came and helped hang
315 snowflakes. It is so
pretty. Thanks to Mike,
Joe, Pat, Linda, Leah,
Kristy, Joanne, Caitlyn
and Holly for coming that
night to help surprise the
residents. We had a good
time and were done in 2
hours. The fun will continue with snow related
activities the rest of the
month. We will play a
snowball toss game and
build snowmen. We will
also do some “snow”
crafts. We will be making
snow window clings and
we already made snowman pins. Everyone
thinks it is pretty but feels
cooler in the dining room.
Season for Giving
This year through the generosity of
residents, family and staff we collected
$300 to give to LOVE, Inc. This was
enough to feed 10 families a Christmas
Dinner. Bill from LOVE came on December 17th and picked up the money
collected. He was very excited to receive this as this year the need was
greater than ever. LOVE helped over
650 families in our area this year with
Christmas needs. Thanks again to all.

We received a card from one of our outside home

“Peace, Love & Compassion….
It’s the greatest resolution of all.”

Directors Message
FINALLY! Repairs have begun.
As you probably have already noticed, the construction
crew has arrived and began to rip out all of the areas in the front entry area that
were damaged by the sprinkler malfunction on December 17th. The repairs began
on January 10th and are scheduled to be completed by January 21st.
During this time the front entry way will not be accessible and everyone will have
to use the entrance directly north of the main entrance. There is signage to help
direct you to the right door. Also, the resident’s mailboxes will be out of service.
So we have worked with the Waterford Post Office to make sure that resident’s
still get their mail daily. The mail will still be delivered at the same time but then
will be delivered right to each resident’s apartment door.
Thank you for your patience and excuse the mess!
New Year’s Eve Party
The residents with January birthdays were honored on the11th.
They are: Evelyn R., Bob P., and
Eric T. Barb from the kitchen
made this gorgeous cake. The
residents were also given a gift
certificate to the salon for a wash,
cut and set for the ladies and a
haircut for the men. A gift from
WSL and Carrie the beautician.
Happy Birthday!
What an awesome message! This really made me
stop and think. Between getting things wrapped up
after the holidays, trying to stay organized during
our reconstruction, and attempting to keep everyone
healthy, this was such a good reminder. I know I
speak for all of us at Waterford Senior Living when
I promise this will be our focus in 2011...to continue
to offer Peace, Love and Compassion to all of you;
our residents, your families and each other.
We had so much fun at our New Year’s
Eve Party. We started celebrating at
11pm and dropped the Waterford Crystal Ball at midnight. When we shot off
our poppers, blew our noise makers and
had a “champagne” toast . As we
waited for the ball to drop we had the
2nd Annual New Years Horserace.
Thanks Anita and her High School
friends for coming and putting on a
great party.
