SUNNYVIEW<br />
Thank you to Jo Ann Maguire for<br />
this report. “When I walk into the<br />
‘Great Room’ at Sunnyview I look,<br />
in awe, at the very tall cornstalk<br />
plant on the north wall. It is at the<br />
edge of one of the beautiful large<br />
windows. It has been secured with<br />
a heavy string to help it stay upright,<br />
due to the height. With the help of<br />
Ted we measured the height at 10 ft.<br />
Amazing!<br />
<strong>The</strong> plant was given in memory<br />
of resident Carolyn Rodewald in<br />
2006. It was 2008 when Carene<br />
took a slip off the original plant to<br />
start a new one. She uses rain water<br />
and a touch of ‘Miracle Grow’ to<br />
work her magic. A year ago John<br />
helped her repot the corn stalk in a<br />
larger container with fresh soil. This<br />
story would not be complete without<br />
saying there are many green plants<br />
in the room. Not only do they help<br />
purify the air but they add a beauty<br />
that only a real, live, green plant can<br />
do. Thanks, Carene, for your ‘green<br />
thumb!’”<br />
Thank you to Jo Fickbohm,<br />
president of the Sunnyview resident’s<br />
group, for this report. “Sunnyview<br />
residents were entertained by Peggy<br />
Neubaum’s third grade students<br />
at 12:45 p.m. on Valentine’s Day.<br />
Around 40 kids did several group<br />
readings that pertained to Valentine’s<br />
Day. <strong>The</strong>y did a very good job and<br />
it is always refreshing to watch them<br />
perform. Thank you, young-uns!”<br />
Jo’s report continues. “Hall 1,<br />
consisting of Jo Fickbohm , Betty<br />
June Lindy, Jean Christensen, and<br />
Helen Huey, hosted a Valentine party<br />
on Feb. 14th for the residents. Fortyone<br />
resident s were in attendance.<br />
<strong>The</strong> theme of the party was ‘Let’s<br />
get acquainted.’ Two days before<br />
the party, questions were drawn at<br />
random from a hat. <strong>The</strong>se questions<br />
were about incidents or memories<br />
of the resident’s lives in the past.<br />
Some questions were very practical<br />
such as ‘How many different cars<br />
have you owned and which was<br />
your favorite?’ While others were<br />
more on the humorous side, such as,<br />
‘What is your earliest memory of a<br />
bath and did you have to share the<br />
water with others?’<br />
Some residents were a little<br />
apprehensive about using the<br />
audio system and talking on the<br />
microphone. One resident was<br />
overheard saying ‘Maybe we should<br />
rent a limo and get out of town so<br />
we don’t have to do it.’ Several<br />
others piped up and said “We’ll<br />
go with you.” As it turned out,<br />
everyone co-operated and took their<br />
turn speaking and it was a very<br />
entertaining evening. We did get<br />
better acquainted, as we learned<br />
about Jeanie Warneke’s ‘most hated<br />
road trip’ and Pauline Walters’<br />
‘scariest thing that ever happened to<br />
her.’ Thanks to everyone for your<br />
answers, you made the evening<br />
enjoyable and we had several good<br />
laughs.<br />
Homemade cake, soda, and coffee<br />
were served by Clarice Martz<br />
and Jean Christensen. Residents<br />
stayed a while after the program to<br />
reminisce and discuss some of the<br />
topics related to the questions that<br />
were asked earlier. Our next group<br />
activity is to be held in March by<br />
Hall 5. We are all looking forward<br />
to it.”<br />
SHADY OAKS<br />
One of the Shady Oaks’ residents’<br />
favorite activities is BINGO, which<br />
is held every Monday afternoon<br />
with volunteer Vicki Keonin.<br />
Two regular games of BINGO are<br />
played, followed by a game of<br />
BLACKOUT. This is no regular<br />
game of BLACKOUT though, as<br />
the winner gets a traveling BINGO<br />
trophy to keep until the next<br />
week! Other prizes for BINGO<br />
games are all edible, ranging from<br />
Cheetos, to candy bars, etc. <strong>The</strong>med<br />
BINGO games such as “CUPID” or<br />
“LUCKY” Bingo are held throughout<br />
the year as well. Pictured as our most<br />
recent BLACKOUT winner is Steve<br />
Rench. Steve has won two weeks in<br />
a row and felt very “lucky.” Lucky<br />
enough, in fact that he decided to<br />
purchase a Powerball ticket. His<br />
luck continued when he guessed the<br />
correct Powerball number “10” and<br />
Steve Rench<br />
received a free ticket. <strong>The</strong> next ticket<br />
unfortunately, was not a winner.<br />
How exciting that he is able to brag<br />
on his short winning streak though!<br />
Congrats Steve!<br />

SUNNY<br />
KNOLL<br />
This week at Sunny Knoll we<br />
started our week off right with<br />
Bingo and Spa Day. On Tuesday<br />
we had a wonderful Valentines Day<br />
party. That morning we made marsh<br />
mellow pops. If you have never<br />
made this I recommend it! <strong>The</strong>y<br />
are so easy and yummy! We served<br />
the marshmallow pops and cookies<br />
as well as punch at the party. A co<br />
worker even let us borrow her punch<br />
fountain which added a nice touch.<br />
We crowned Gary Johnson as our<br />
king and Bertha Ewing as our queen.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y were both very surprised but<br />
pleased. On Wednesday we enjoyed<br />
a day of devotionals and Bible<br />
study. Thursday we got together for<br />
coupon club. If you can believe it we<br />
even have a couple guys that join<br />
us! Thursday afternoon I had a good<br />
group of ladies making bracelets.<br />
<strong>The</strong> popular colors seemed to be red<br />
and pink. Friday was full of social<br />
fun. Friday morning is always Men’s<br />
coffee and Friday afternoon is spent<br />
talking with friends over a bowl<br />
of ice cream. We hope everyone<br />
enjoyed their Valentines Day as<br />
much as we did!<br />
