What a beautiful and elegant Tea Party at the Lexington Day Program! 🌸☕👒

The room was filled with laughter, fellowship, and elegance as everyone gathered in their finest attire, adorned with stunning fascinators and hats. From the beautifully decorated tables to the delicious refreshments and meaningful conversations, every detail helped make the event truly special.

A heartfelt thank you to Mallory Baughman, Activity Coordinator, Jamesha Cook, DSP, and everyone who contributed to making this occasion so memorable. The creativity, joy, and sense of community on display served as a wonderful reminder that some of life’s sweetest moments are shared around a table with friends.

It was a beautiful celebration of friendship, connection, and togetherness—one that will be cherished by all who attended.

Here’s to celebrating inclusion, elegance, and making lasting memories together! 💕✨

The Greenwood Day Program traveled to Hartwell, Georgia, to visit the Lake Hartwell Wildlife Safari on Friday, June 12. Upon arriving, everyone departed from the Burton Center vehicles and boarded the Community Bus to visit the safari. They enjoyed seeing, petting, and feeding bison, ostrich, camels, water buffalo, wildebeest, Zebu, parakeets, and tortoises in their natural environment.

They enjoyed a picnic lunch before returning to Greenwood.
