🌟 August Highlights: Celebrating Community, Connection and Active Living
August was a celebration of the dynamic lifestyle our residents enjoy every dayβ€”filled with meaningful moments, engaging activities and vibrant community spirit.

Residents kicked off the month with Benevolent Care Bingo, hosted by the Cornwall Manor Society, sparking laughter and friendly competition. Culinary experiences shined with Chef’s Table and Stir Fry Night, offering gourmet flavors and personalized touches. At Corson Hall, Personal Care residents enjoyed a lively lineup of events including a visit from Lebanon County’s Dairy Princess, a festive Italian lunch, a playful water battle, and the timeless tradition of husking and savoring fresh corn on the cob.

The Clubhouse Donor Tour showcased the impact of community support and future vision, while the Trailside Organic Farm remained a hub of activity with weekly Friday Farm Markets, Pick-Your-Own produce, and educational gatherings like the Trailside Tea Planter.

Summer fun continued with Root Beer Floats & Live Music, Happy Hour, and a visit from Penny’s Ice Cream Truck, celebrating our dedicated staff. The Health Center Travel Week took residents on a global journey, and the Artful Connections Drumming Class encouraged creativity and rhythm.

We proudly welcomed new residents, celebrated employee retirements and resident birthdays, and awarded five $5,000 Weik Scholarships, supporting educational growth. The month concluded with two exciting weeks of Senior Games, filled with spirited competition, camaraderie and community pride.

πŸͺ˜ Artful Connections: Drumming Circle Finale!

Recently, our final drumming circle with instructor Dani Fiore was nothing short of inspiring. πŸ₯βœ¨

Residents stepped into the center of the circle to lead their own rhythmsβ€”yes, they facilitated the circle themselves! From polyrhythms to complex accent patterns, this group has truly grown in skill and spirit.

Artful Connections, now in its fourth season, is a multi-faceted arts program at Cornwall Manor. As Americans enjoy longer and healthier lives than ever before, the focus on holistic wellness has become increasingly important. One innovative approach to promoting well-being among older adults is through arts programming. These programs not only provide a creative outlet, but also contribute significantly to physical, mental and emotional health.

We're looking forward to the next Artful Connections session, African Mud Cloth!
