What a beautiful fall day it was for a Carnival. Our residents delighted with the dunk tank, chocolate pie eating contest, dancing clowns, face painting, ping pong toss, cake walk, blacksmith demo and music by DJ Rob, along with many fun games. The more games you played, the more raffles tickets you earned and chances to win prizes!

Lunch was served outside with cotton candy and popcorn offered. Our staff disguised themselves dressing as a fortune teller, stylish, colorful psychedelic clowns, and Cookie as a cookie. It was an old-fashioned fun day outside at its best.
