Welcome Spring!  The nice weather can’t get here fast enough as we are itching to get outside and enjoy the warm sun on our back deck.  Last week some of our members even helped to get our garden ready for the growing season, cleaning out the beds and raking the lawn.  It was a beautiful day to be outside.  We are hoping to grow sunflowers out back this year, and are excited to see the beautiful hydrangea tree given to us by the Woman’s Club last year bloom again!

Please check out the Silverthorne Adult Day Facebook page to see some of the great activities we did in March.  We started the month with a Veteran’s Appreciation Luncheon.  Since then our members were very busy making our spring and holiday decorations, feeding the birds, virtually visiting Ireland and Hawaii, playing some fun new physical games, as well as the requisite BINGO!

In April, we will continue our virtual visits to Chicago, to the zoo, to Italy and to London.  On the 16^th we will be wearing our pajamas, and we will be playing volleyball, golf, broom ball, corn hole and whiffle ball throughout the month.

We would like to wish a very warm welcome to our newest members: Bob, Marie, Susan, Al, and their families to our Silverthorne family!
