January gave everyone at The Pines campus a chance to catch their breath and rest a bit after the busy Christmas season, but they didn’t rest for long! Folks rang in 2025 during a festive Happy Hour with delicious snacks and champagne, and the New Year means a renewed determination to stay active and fit with large muscle exercises like balloon badminton and volleyball. A few folks have also formed the “Pedal Pushers Club” and are making great use of the NuStep exercise bike. A big thank you to the Raptor Education Group (REGI) for bringing two raptors to The Pines. It was fascinating to learn about the Barred Owl and American Kestral. Thanks also to resident John’s son for bringing his lovable dog to Pine Villa to say hello. Winter crafts with faithful volunteers Kim, Erleen and Lynne, great music performances and a rousing Family Game Night rounded out the month. To view photos, please click on the web album link below.
