Gracewood of North Branch-Carnival

Happy November!  Gracewood in North Branch has had quite a flurry of activity lately.  We had a fall carnival – and did we have fun!  Over 100 kids and adults filled our building!  We had games, clowns, good music by Mike Larson, a bouncy house, and we even had a fishing game with real fish for prizes!  One of our residents had 15 family members join in the fun!  The kids were smiling ear to ear and even with clown noses on!  We hope that you have a month filled with bushels of blessings and a Happy Thanksgiving.  Stop in to visit our building sometime.  We’ll have the coffee on.

Gracewood of Hugo-Singing a variety of Music for Residents

Tony, a young man that comes to Gracewood regularly to sing to us, came twice this month.  Tony sings a variety of music from the 50’s and 60’s.  Tony is very interactive with the residents.  He dances, holds their hands, and has them sing the words to some of the songs.  Last time Tony was here, he brought glasses that lit up and had the residents try them on.

Gracewood of Hugo-Fifth Graders reading books to residents

Two classrooms of fifth grade students came to Gracewood to visit with us last Wednesday. The children rode their bikes from a nearby school in Hugo. The students brought books and spent the morning reading. They also had fun visiting with the residents.
