Hello from Westfield Quality Care of Aurora.
This week the residents had a game called conversation cards; you talk about the card that is drawn. We have many talented residents that continue to enjoy painting. The residents were able to spend some time outside this week and played a dice game called Left Center Right.
For our COVID update this week there are no COVID positive residents or staff. Our facility remains open, and residents are able to participate in regular activities. Please remember to wash your hands frequently and use hand sanitizer often. If you have any COVID symptoms please stay home and take care of yourself, we will take good care of the residents, so you do not have to worry. I want to thank everyone that has been visiting and helping to keep our loved ones safe.
Here is an interesting fact about Woodstock: Woodstock did not take place in Woodstock, the initial plan to have it in Woodstock fell through when they couldn’t find suitable space. The organizers were inspired by Bob Dylan to have the festival take place in upstate New York, but the event ended up in Bethel about 70 miles away from Woodstock, but they did keep the name the same.
About 186,000 tickets were sold before the weekend, organizers believed no more than 200,000 would actually show up. The fence was so worn that it was torn down by the crowds on the first day and a total of 400,000 – 500,000 ended up at the festival.
Best regards,
Michelle Broekemier
