Two locals, including our very own Paul Monjar, are celebrating their milestone birthdays by reminiscing on their decades in the area. We wish to send a happy birthday to Rose, who is 100 years young, and to Paul, who will be 105 years young on September 6th!

The Bradford Era

Chapel Ridge is hosting its annual Kick-Off to Summer festivities to honor the beginning of the summer season. The week-long celebration with the theme “Summer Is a State of Mind” features a variety of events and activities for residents to participate in and enjoy.

For Father’s Day on the 19th, residents and their families gathered to take part in a creative activity called “Dads Rock” that gave them the opportunity to make rock picture frames together while enjoying each other’s company during the holiday. Director of Activities Becky Greenberg said, “We really look forward every year to our Kick-Off to Summer, getting staff involved, and enjoying friends and family. It’s our favorite thing to do.”

The Activities Department also organized a trip out for a picnic and a drive to enjoy the sunshine and warm weather. The remainder of Kick-Off week continued with a variety of pastimes, including an alpaca visit, and a resident and staff dance party contest.

An outdoor bell choir concert is set for tonight at 6:30 p.m. in which residents’ families are invited to attend.

Whether spending time with family or delighting in fun and games, the residents at Chapel Ridge are in no short supply of entertainment this summer season.
