Lakeshore Heartland

Several times throughout the year we visit a nursing home where we have 3-5 ladies that don’t get much company. They either don’t have any family or that family is not living close by. At Christmas we always get them a gift and also have a bag of things like body lotion, kleenex etc. We have a cheeseball and crackers along with cookies and something festive to drink. Our other visits their favorite activity of trying on hats! We have members that bring hats (sometimes as many as 30) the ladies try on different ones and then we take their pictures. They really seem to enjoy this and we have done that several times. If no planned project, we just sit and talk (and eat) with them and they enjoy that also.
