Residents are disappointed they are missing Wheelers this week due to the storm. We thank the many volunteers that make Wheelers possible. Residents enjoy their weekly rides to Creeks Preserve and out to the Surfside shack for ice cream. Thank you, Wheelers for all the fun rides you provide for the residents of Our Island Home and the elderly and disabled of Nantucket.

Thank you Susan Berman and Ray Saunders for another fun and upbeat musical performance on Tuesday.

We would like to thank Rocky Fox for sponsoring the Hang Loose ice cream truck at OIH for a grand ice cream social. Thank you, Bianca from the Friends of Our Island Home for organizing this event. Every resident and staff member of OIH were invited to attend the ice cream social. We are never too old to indulge in ice cream. This was a sweeet way to spend the last days of August.
