Dear Families and Friends,

We are looking forward to an exciting March!

With Daylight Savings Time back in full swing, we’ll experience all the luck of the Irish at our third annual St. Patrick’s Day celebration on March 17th, and we’ll welcome the warm breezes of Spring with our Welcome Spring Party on March 20th!

In support of National Nutrition Month – that focuses on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits – our Green Thumb Garden Club will be out in the fresh air tending to our vegetable and herbs gardens, while inside we’ll be offering our fun and very tasty Kitchen Creations classes events every Thursday afternoon.

From an Engagement perspective, our March entertainment calendar is full of live music performances that include Danny Mac hosting this months “Birthday Bash Party,” “Hump Day Happy Hour” performances featuring “A Touch of Elvis & Patsy,” Michael Nugent and Ron Collins, two Fun Day Thursday appearances by song stylist Donna Lynne, and a special Tuesday Fun Day show featuring Nancy Massena. Upcoming outings will include first time “Casino-Cruise” visits to Red Rock Resort, Rampart Casino, and the Sahara. We’ll be back on the links for more rounds of “Poet’s Putters,” and the “Out-To-Lunch Bunch” will continue their delicious culinary crusades around our beautiful Las Vegas Valley! And at home, our Engagement program continues to offer an exciting variety of enriching activities that nurtures the mind, body and soul while contributing to a more meaningful and fulfilling future.

Kind Regards, Mark

Engagement Coordinators

Iris – Like the long stemmed �ower, the person will always walk in a straight line or lean to one side. �ey may be unable to coordinate speech but can sing almost anything with rhythm. Fine motor skills are usually missing as well and they may have di�culty with tasks that require these skills. Care team should always have a familiar song with rhythm up their sleeve. It may come in handy!

Our Team Member Pledge:

I dedicate myself to the principles of trust, respect and

integrity, and I pledge to give the best of myself to the remarkable

people I serve.
