A Picture Perfect Afternoon


In celebration of Art month, Chad Bleaker of Seniors at Home led a "crafty" bunch of Juniper Village of Chatham residents in a pre-Valentine's Day session of homemade picture frame-making fun. The quality craft was taken to fondly; as soon as the artists completed one frame, they began work on another, making for a most joyful afternoon of creativity and lively conversation.  Quality crafts are just one way Juniper Village at Chatham Nurtures our resident's individual choice and preference in daily activities.  Each and every day we deliver programs touching upon mind, body and spiritual fulfillment.  Because each of our residents hold special qualities in their own life stories, our caring staff works to learn what programming will enrich the quality of life in each individuals life we touch.  If you are interested in learning more about how to become involved in our Connections programming, please call today for a list of scheduled upcoming events.

Bridge and Nancy

Bridge has always been popular with the residents at Juniper Village,but since the addition of volunteer Nancy Smith (daughter of resident Larry Lindars), the game has REALLY taken off.

On any given day at 2:00 PM, one can catch a dynamic game of Bridge in
action; in fact, three games running simultaneously is not an unusual sight! Thanks to Nancy's warm, engaging manner and her many tips on winning strategies, increasing numbers of Juniper residents are discovering the joys and challenges of Bridge.

On the second Thursday of each month, residents with birthdays which fall in that month are encouraged to invite guests to join in a celebratory lunch, one capped off with a traditional cake and joyous singing of "Happy Birthday".
