Winter has really hit full force the last couple of weeks. That is why the Residents at The Williamsport Home Apartments were so happy for a bus trip to Cracker Barrel for dinner. The nice big fire in the fire place was only second to the huge Apple Dumplings that were enjoyed by several diners!

New Year's Eve traditionally wraps up the Holiday Festivities at The Williamsport Home Apartments! Each apartment building holds their own party. I only have pictures from the "B" Building party, but if anyone has pictures from the other buildings please send them to me and I will post them! (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) The party in "B" Building was fun and included poetry reading, games, Doris Reichenbach played the piano for a sing along, and there was lots of food! Dick Wagner makes a mean shrimp cocktail!

 

One of the great things about living in The Williamsport Home Apartments is all of the fun things the Travel Committee plans for the Residents. On December 14th the Residents had a great time on a bus trip. First we went to the beautiful Shawnee on Delaware Hotel for lunch. While we were there we took in their display of Nativity Scenes from around the world (which was very interesting). Then we had a delicious lunch. After lunch we got back on the bus for a one mile ride over the quaint little playhouse to see Tiny Tim's Christmas Carol. The play was a musical version of Charles Dicken's "A Christmas Carol", and enjoyed by everyone!

WOW hard to believe it is the Christmas Season already! At The Williamsport Home and Apartments residents take the holiday very seriously. Decorating is a big part of getting ready for Santa. All three of our Apartment Buildings held Tree Trimming parties. Residents decorated their tree, sang carols, ate cookies and started the holiday festivities. At the Skilled Facility we had our annual Christmas Tea. Over 100 friends and family came to sing carols, visit with loved ones and participate in the Tree Lighting Ceremony. The Home is all decked out for Christmas with the help of all of our staff. Making the holidays fun for the residents is a part of their jobs that our staff really enjoys.

On Wednesday night, November 14th, the newly established Wellness Committee at The Williamsport Home Apartments held a Bingo and Ice Cream Social. Over 60 residents came out for a fun night of Bingo and Kaleb Roudabush's (our Wellness Coordinator) famous home made ice cream! During the good weather months the focus is on being outside walking, playing bocci, and using the action stations on campus. Come winter, the focus is more on indoor activities. Either way, everyone has fun!
