LOVE ALERT: "Let's Celebrate!" -Emily
National Assisted Living Week: Through the Decades!
What an incredible week of celebration we had at The Regency Senior Living at Glen Cove as we celebrated National Assisted Living Week with our “Through the Decades” theme! Residents, staff, and companions traveled back in time each day, reminiscing and celebrating the music, fashion, memories, and milestones of the 1940s through the 1980s. From the elegance of the 1940s and the fabulous 1950s to the groovy 1960s and 1970s and the unforgettable 1980s, every day brought something new and exciting!
We even transformed The Regency into a James Bond-inspired Casino Day, complete with casino games, glamorous fun, and plenty of excitement! We actually had three real slot machines here as well. Congrats to Ellie who won the most "money" for the day. She traded in "$128,000 of her casino money" for lunch for four in the private dining room- seems fair LOL! Our 70s Day had everyone getting groovy with retro fashion, music, and fun. And throughout the entire week, daily raffles and prizes kept the excitement going for our residents, staff, and companions.
Prizes included luggage, Tv's, Movie Tickets, NutraBullets, Luncheons, Hair Salons certificates and so much more! Congrats to all of the 15 winners!
A very special thank you to Annmarie and the entire Recreation Department for their incredible creativity, energy, hard work, and dedication. From shopping and dressing up to searching for those perfect decorations and finding all the little “odds and ends” that brought each decade to life, every detail was noticed and appreciated. You could see the love and effort behind every day, and it made the entire week truly unforgettable. Thank you for creating so many smiles, memories, laughs, and moments of joy for our Regency family!
