Somewhere in our understanding of what is important in our
work here at Juniper Village at Louisville, we may have stretched the boundary
of importance to include being cheesy and making sure that everyone has a good
time.
Sometimes when we’re coming up with ideas for celebrating at
our community, we specifically aim to achieve this goal. Fortunately, there are
national days of celebration; such as, Cheese Ball Day that really enable us to
do this type of an event rather easily (thank goodness that somebody, somewhere
thought this should be a day to celebrate cheese balls, because we here at
Juniper are on top of making this one of the most amazing days ever!)
So, with this in mind, we set out to have a cheesy day
(which included cheesy attire…check out the picture of some of the leadership
team members…kitty leggings, St. Patrick’s Day cupcakes a full month later,
sequin skirts, tulle skirts…florescent colors…if that is not the epitome of
cheesy, then we don’t want to know what is!) We also decided to tell cheesy
jokes (not necessarily just about cheese…my personal favorite is: What did the
Mama Tomato say to the baby tomatoes…catch up, catch up!) Then, we played a
cheesy game with cheese balls (which is also a personal favorite). We had the
staff sit with a shower cap on, which then had shaving cream placed on top of
it while the residents threw cheese balls, with the aim of getting them in the
shaving cream and sticking…needless to say, fun was had by everyone!
Please join us for any of our upcoming cheesy events, where
we guarantee that fun will be had! Our next event is our Mother’s Day Tea on
May 10 at 10:30 a.m.
