2016-01-26 08:00:51 PM patty4 I think a parade of costumes might be fun. One year I bought the super cheap eye masks and then had a craft day to decorate them with feathers and giltter etc. It was a real hit! Some folks glued a stick on the side so they could be kinda fancy

2016-01-26 08:05:03 PM lisas Okay...so we are supposed to talk a bout a special event that we are planning. you two got anything cooking?
2016-01-26 08:05:21 PM khawver And I was going to jump in with the melissam lisas group if that's okay
2016-01-26 08:05:28 PM lisas it's good with me!
2016-01-26 08:05:38 PM maryc2 yes valentines party
2016-01-26 08:05:39 PM sheilabryce I am doing a fundraiser/biker event in the spring
2016-01-26 08:05:42 PM patty4 Yes - i am hosting a Bean Bag Baseball game at the swing bed program and the group is going to come in and teach the patients.
2016-01-26 08:05:48 PM skershaw ok that sounds good
2016-01-26 08:05:50 PM melissam our big events for feb is the elvis impersonator and a mardi gras party.
2016-01-26 08:05:59 PM jackie26 left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:06:06 PM skershaw we just need to figure out a room
2016-01-26 08:06:13 PM julies How do you play it?
2016-01-26 08:06:16 PM sheilabryce it's called Harley's Against Heroin. To raise awareness and to sell the shirts to raise money
2016-01-26 08:06:17 PM patty4 There are 12 in this room right now
2016-01-26 08:06:19 PM khawver Do they hit the beanbags with a bat?
2016-01-26 08:06:20 PM lisas I'm still working on VDay! My director takes forever to get the calendar out so I can't plan my memory care activities around his until he gets his out. frustrating
2016-01-26 08:06:42 PM lisas oooo...nice sheila!
2016-01-26 08:06:54 PM patty4 You can goodle it I think - but there are no bats. - you use beanbags and toss them at a board that has 1,2nd and 3rd base holes in the board and a homerun and 2 out holes
2016-01-26 08:06:59 PM skershaw i love getting my calander out before the begenning of the next motnh
2016-01-26 08:07:02 PM lisas waht are you doing for the mardi gras party, melissa
2016-01-26 08:07:21 PM melissam At my facility we all creat our own house calendar collectively and then from that add more unit activities.
2016-01-26 08:07:22 PM maryc2 open discussion on thursday
2016-01-26 08:07:34 PM skershaw at 8!
2016-01-26 08:07:40 PM lisas that's nice...that way everyone has an input.
2016-01-26 08:07:41 PM maryc2 ok
2016-01-26 08:07:41 PM patty4 Each person gets 3 balls (beanbags to toss). When 3 people on the team that is 'up' are out then it's the other teams turn. 7 innings - need a score keeper
2016-01-26 08:07:51 PM skershaw sounds great!
2016-01-26 08:08:07 PM sheilabryce I have a girlfriend that helps in her community, she sells the t-shirts for funds, so she has agreed to get bikers to bring their bikes and set them up and put the seniors on the bikes and in Harley T-shirts. Give back to the community
2016-01-26 08:08:11 PM maryc2 see u then good night
2016-01-26 08:08:18 PM skershaw night night
2016-01-26 08:08:27 PM patty4 Residents LOVE LOVE LOVE This game. They get overly competitive - so it's good to do tournaments against other places now and then so they don't get cross with each other :P)
2016-01-26 08:08:27 PM julies sounds like fun, we play bat and board baseball which is with cards
2016-01-26 08:08:31 PM lisas That will be good for the guys!!!! I always wanted to do a car show...
2016-01-26 08:08:35 PM maryc2 left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:08:37 PM melissam we are discussing it more tomorrow lisa but i think it will be a fairly normal party with the mardi gras theme. Time to get our act together it is here soon!
2016-01-26 08:08:42 PM sheilabryce So, is just being on here enough or do I need to do something else?
2016-01-26 08:08:51 PM lisas lol!!!
2016-01-26 08:08:52 PM 12789 left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:09:04 PM patty4 For mardi gras i use alot of purple and green decorations
2016-01-26 08:09:07 PM khawver Any ideas for food for mardi gras>
2016-01-26 08:09:15 PM sheilabryce seriously, do I put my name someplace?
2016-01-26 08:09:19 PM lisas shiela....someone asked Kathy how she knows we actually do the chat...she said she sees all the chats, so that's our proof
2016-01-26 08:09:30 PM patty4 Louisiana - cajun cuisine
2016-01-26 08:09:36 PM sheilabryce we're having cajun food with that cake...
2016-01-26 08:09:38 PM lisas maybe when we are done, one of us can email her with all our names so she can check and give us credit for it
2016-01-26 08:09:40 PM skershaw left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:09:52 PM patty4 Getting the chef excited about the event is important :)
2016-01-26 08:10:04 PM patty4 good idea lisas
2016-01-26 08:10:12 PM khawver How many do you have to serve Patty4?
2016-01-26 08:10:14 PM patty4 let's do that
2016-01-26 08:10:17 PM sheilabryce for us getting the kitchen to distribute enough food is importatn'
2016-01-26 08:10:19 PM melissam how about simplier finger food ideas?
2016-01-26 08:10:25 PM khawver We have to serve 100
2016-01-26 08:10:31 PM lisas hmmmmm
2016-01-26 08:10:52 PM patty4 Used to have 120 residents and usually about 50 or 60 would come to a party unless we held it at noon - then it would be everyone. Now I'm in a 25 bed swing bed program - different challenges!!! for sure...
2016-01-26 08:10:55 PM lisas cajun finger foods..besides Popeyes!
2016-01-26 08:10:57 PM sheilabryce we're above 100.... tonight was buffet, they ran out of food
2016-01-26 08:11:06 PM lisas Uh Oh!!!
2016-01-26 08:11:11 PM khawver Oh no Sheila!
2016-01-26 08:11:11 PM patty4 Maybe shrimp and red sauce - spicy and not so spicy
2016-01-26 08:11:23 PM patty4 Ran out of food -- AHHH!!!!
2016-01-26 08:11:28 PM julies What are popeyes?
2016-01-26 08:11:28 PM melissam it must be difficult to serve over 100 people buffet style
2016-01-26 08:11:32 PM sheilabryce happens quite a lot. worse department we have right now.
2016-01-26 08:11:32 PM lisas how about small cups of 5 layer dip
2016-01-26 08:11:41 PM lisas Popeys chicken!
2016-01-26 08:11:44 PM melissam i'm in NY= no popeyes
2016-01-26 08:11:56 PM sheilabryce they run out of food quite a bit.. I don't get it!
2016-01-26 08:12:00 PM lisas So am I...buffalo area...there are several around here
2016-01-26 08:12:02 PM khawver The layer dip is a neat idea
2016-01-26 08:12:08 PM patty4 Ever get the resident that hordes fresh fruit and housekeeping can hardly get in their room for all their stuff and then they start to smell the rotting fruit?
2016-01-26 08:12:11 PM lisas we just got our first sonic over the winter!
2016-01-26 08:12:22 PM melissam hmmm maybe i just haven'y noticed them then
2016-01-26 08:12:26 PM lisas Patty...LOL.... i had one in my old facility!
2016-01-26 08:12:31 PM julies we have a lot of hoarders right now
2016-01-26 08:12:45 PM julies tissues new and used
2016-01-26 08:12:51 PM patty4 One used to take all my flowers off the dining room tables ... I always knew where to look!
2016-01-26 08:13:01 PM sheilabryce are you dementia julies?
2016-01-26 08:13:05 PM patty4 eeeuwwww - used tissues !!!
2016-01-26 08:13:06 PM lisas I still gotta plan a VDay party for my memory unit
2016-01-26 08:13:06 PM melissam We used to have residents who hoarded bingo cards. strange behaviors.
2016-01-26 08:13:14 PM khawver We have a resident who keeps about 20 remotes in her walker basket
2016-01-26 08:13:16 PM lisas that is strange...
2016-01-26 08:13:19 PM julies did you have them water your fake centerpieces?
2016-01-26 08:13:23 PM patty4 remotes!!!
2016-01-26 08:13:34 PM melissam hah. yes julies!
2016-01-26 08:13:37 PM patty4 Yes ... watering silk flowers - absolutely!!
2016-01-26 08:13:48 PM andreafisher left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:13:53 PM lisas oooo...never thought of that! They don't look at you sideways?
2016-01-26 08:14:08 PM khawver Lisas do you have hired entertainment for your valentine's party?
2016-01-26 08:14:09 PM sheilabryce What are you thinking lisas? What type of facility are you
2016-01-26 08:14:11 PM patty4 I was impressed with how many residents who were experiencing some form of dementia could still continue in independent living safely. It's amazing.
2016-01-26 08:14:32 PM sheilabryce I agree Patty4...
2016-01-26 08:14:37 PM melissam lisas, you could do a strawberry sundae social for valentines day
2016-01-26 08:14:41 PM patty4 NO no no... they watered silk flowers - not me !!
2016-01-26 08:14:48 PM julies we already did one v day craft for the party. we did tissue paper painting hearts
2016-01-26 08:14:51 PM tonic left the chat room
2016-01-26 08:15:03 PM patty4 Love strawberry idea...
2016-01-26 08:15:10 PM lisas I am in culture change assisted, but I run the memory care unit...so I have a little ability to make things happen, but not entertainment. If my boss scheduled entertainment for the assisted part, I can take some of my peoplel there, but alas, I STILL don't have his completed calender to plan around it!!!!
2016-01-26 08:15:22 PM khawver Lisa we are doing a Queen of Hearts tea party
2016-01-26 08:15:33 PM patty4 What's your budget lisas?
2016-01-26 08:15:39 PM lisas I like the strawberry idea, too. Maybe have them skew them on bamboo skewers and swirl in chocholate. OOOO, and a tea party also!
2016-01-26 08:15:47 PM julies Just ask for the entertainer dates and then I plan parties around them
2016-01-26 08:15:50 PM patty4 Tea party!!
2016-01-26 08:15:52 PM melissam even better!
2016-01-26 08:15:56 PM lisas I don't know what the budget it...I usually get what I want tho.
2016-01-26 08:16:02 PM sheilabryce lisas, go buy some valentines decor, maybe melt some chocolate and strawberrries...
2016-01-26 08:16:12 PM lisas I think I will do that!
2016-01-26 08:16:14 PM julies we just had tea and scones social the residents loved it
2016-01-26 08:16:29 PM patty4 My budget is about 250 each month for 25 people
2016-01-26 08:16:33 PM khawver For the tea party, we've been getting the most adorable little silver spoons at the dollar tree
2016-01-26 08:16:37 PM lisas I also want to print up some of the old valentins that Kathy shared with us in a chat a while ago and hand one to the residenst
2016-01-26 08:16:37 PM sheilabryce put on some nice dance music make a circle and ask a gentleman to dance with you
2016-01-26 08:16:40 PM khawver 24 for a buc,
2016-01-26 08:16:52 PM lisas Awesome!
2016-01-26 08:16:56 PM sheilabryce that would be good
2016-01-26 08:17:28 PM patty4 I like chatting ... how long do we chat for credit?
2016-01-26 08:17:33 PM khawver And we've also been experiment with serving parfait type desserts in clear plastic cups (or sherbet dish) because it looks elegant but we don't have to worry about excluding puree peopl
2016-01-26 08:17:41 PM melissam i don't think the time is specific
2016-01-26 08:17:42 PM lisas good idea
2016-01-26 08:17:45 PM julies I think half and hour would be plenty
2016-01-26 08:17:50 PM sheilabryce I bought some wooden hearts and beads, and spread some glue over small patches and it stayed, maybe glitter.
2016-01-26 08:17:59 PM patty4 ok... how about summer ideas - planning ahead...
2016-01-26 08:18:24 PM melissam wow ok summer ideas. give me a minute to think.

2016-01-26 08:19:45 PM melissam We have a group of master gardeners come in every other week to help run a garden club. There are raised beds and each unit gets their own bed that they are responsible for. The gardeners teach us different tips and tell stories and also help with providing plants and seeds.
