The Macedonia FACE Active for LIfe Senior Center's garden is thriving! Four years ago, the peach tree was one of the first things planted in the rooftop garden and it has been growing steadily ever since. This year it finally was able to bear fruit and we harvested the first peaches today. They were perfect, ripe and juicy and fresh off the branch.

If you would like to join us for gardening or any of the amazing activities at the senior center, come see us Monday through Friday 8am-2pm on the third floor of the Thelma Lovette YMCA.

What better way to kick off summer than with a sweet treat and lots of smiles? 😎🌞

On Wednesday, the Macedonia FACE Bedford Team celebrated the end of the school year with our Bedford Dwellings families by welcoming students off the bus with ice cream sandwiches and popsicles! 🍨🍧

Thanks to the excitement and energy of our community, they handed out nearly 200 frozen treats as students officially stepped into summer break! 🎉

As backpacks get tucked away and summer adventures begin, we're looking forward to a season filled with fun, learning, laughter, and community connections. Whether it's outdoor play, family activities, reading adventures, or making new memories, we hope everyone has a safe and amazing summer!

🌞 Summer is here.

🎈 The fun is just beginning!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and helped the Bedford Team celebrate another successful school year. Stay cool, stay safe, and get ready for a summer full of sunshine and smiles!
