Kendal at Hanover

Residents and staff recently enjoyed a special visit from Advance Transit (AT), which brought one of its buses to campus for an interactive, hands-on learning experience.
The event gave participants the opportunity to step aboard, explore the bus, ask questions, and learn more about AT's free transportation options available throughout the Upper Valley.
AT staff also provided personalized assistance, demonstrating how to use the AT website and mobile app to plan trips, find routes, and access real-time transit information.
More than just a bus visit, the event helped residents build confidence in using public transportation while discovering new ways to stay active, independent, and connected to the community.

Thank you to the Advance Transit team for sharing your expertise and making transportation more accessible for everyone! And a special thank you to the KaH resident Transportation Committee for helping make this valuable opportunity possible!

🎁 Holiday Cheer in Action! 🎄

On December 18, Kendal at Hanover was filled with laughter, generosity, and plenty of festive spirit as residents and staff came together to assemble 150 holiday gift bags for the Grafton County Senior Citizens Council (GCSSC). Each bag—thoughtfully packed with cozy essentials like gloves and socks, handy flashlights, and a few extra treats—was created to bring warmth and cheer to Meals on Wheels clients throughout our community.

“Being able to share these gift bags with Meals on Wheels recipients is a heartfelt way to care for our wider community and add a bit of joy to the holiday season,” said Beth Vettori, CEO of Kendal at Hanover. “It speaks to the deep sense of kindness and connection that our residents and staff bring to this time of year.”

The gift bags were picked up by GCSSC staff and will be shared this holiday season through their Meals on Wheels program.

We are grateful to partner with to help make the holidays a little brighter and warmer for our neighbors. 💕

Here’s to carrying the spirit of giving throughout the season and beyond!

Connections: A Celebration of Creativity, Communication, & Community was introduced on September 19 at the Kilton Public Library Gallery in West Lebanon, with an inspiring reception celebrating the artwork of Kendal at Hanover residents living with Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia.
Guests enjoyed 30 vibrant paintings that speak to the universal desire to connect.
“Creativity lives in all of us, regardless of memory loss,” shared Erica Myers, Memory Care Resource Coordinator at Kendal at Hanover.
We were honored by the heartfelt remarks of Howard Goodrow, Executive Director of the Vermont Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, who reminded us that Alzheimer’s affects memory, but it doesn’t erase the person or their ability to express themselves.
Neely McNulty, Hood Museum Curator of Education, provided insights on how Art opens a space where we can meet beyond words and beyond memory.
Connections is on display through October 30.
