It’s the smell of popcorn on Thursdays, laughter coming from the activity areas, colorful door decorations, or a special movie playing in the theater… The halls of St. Francis Manor and the Hammond Center are filled with weekly themes, holidays, and birthdays hosted by the activities departments! Each week is full of crafts, food, and social engagements which helps provide our residents/tenants with good quality-of-life experiences.
St. Francis Manor residents, Hammond Center for Assisted Living tenants and Seeland Park residents must all be on Santa’s nice list as he was spotted on several occasions on the St. Francis Manor campus! Along with Santa, St. Francis Manor residents were joined by their family members at special Christmas parties held in the Social Center for the first time since the pandemic. Sitting at tables adorned with festive red and black decorations, attendees sang Christmas carols, ate tasty treats, tested their Christmas knowledge with trivia questions and visited with Santa!
Breakfast with Santa at St. Francis Manor was a fun event for all ages! Over 125 people including four generations of the Madolyn Braley, Gary Foster and Pat Johnson families gathered for an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast. From babies to 95-year-olds, most enjoyed seeing the jolly elf; however, there were a few who couldn’t be coaxed with a candy cane to sit on Santa’s lap! Some of Santa’s elves better known as Seeland Park residents assisted with serving drinks and clearing tables. The event raised $1,787 to benefit the Hammond Center for Assisted Living Human Needs Fund.
CMS has released new guidance on visitation, dining and activities please read carefully before your visit to be prepared with state and local guidelines.
