• Zephyr Apartments had a very successful yard sale June 4th. There was lots  of traffic stopping, as there were many yard sales in the neighborhood. Go Zephyr Resident Association. Thank you to Tiny who is always a tremendous help, and the other volunteers that helped that beautiful cool day. Zephyr's Father's Day Social combo Ice cream Social June 8th was very nice and intimate.

April Showers bring May flowers

May found us with our Mother's Day Socials: Strawberry had theirs on May 6th, we had a sheet cake and cut fruit..Zephyr had their social on May 11th with a sheet cake and cookies. Attendees of both socials went home with a mug planted with a spider plant. The mugs were previous donations from our residents. The spider plants are from the Mother plant in Strawberry's green house. Both Socials had Manor Care presentations and Blood Pressure checks. Rachael presented Pennsylvania facts and Nutrition Facts for Seniors.
