One week until our next Outreach! Join us Thursday, March 23rd at The Villas (formerly Bortz). They are very excited to have us come. (Don’t hold me to this, but I think that the activities director said something about cookies!) It has been a couple of years since we were last there, but they still remember us!

The Villas is located at 2828 Concord Street. Take Veterans Drive (which runs between South Airport Rd and 14th St.) and turn east on Concord to 2828. (Concord is closer to South Airport Rd and if coming from South Airport Rd, you would turn right onto Concord). Our sing-a-long starts at 2:00 p.m., so come a little earlier to meet and greet and help pass out music.

The Villas asks that we wear masks when entering the building, but when we get to the area where we will be singing, we will be able to take our masks off. Hope to see you there and please invite a friend or your spouse to join us! Any questions? Call Maurine at 231-668-6103.

It is time for Outreach fun again! We are scheduled to have our “sing-a-long” with the residents of The Pavilions next Thursday, February 23rd, a week from today, and they are looking forward to our visit!

The Pavilions is located at 1000 Pavilions Circle, next to the hospital, just off of Medical Campus Drive. The Pavilions asks that we wear masks when entering the building, but when we get to the area where we will be singing, we will be able to take our masks off.

Our program starts promptly at 2:00 p.m., so please come a bit early so we can welcome and pass out music to our guests. And friends and family are invited to share in the fun – the more the merrier!

Call 231.668.6103 with any questions.

UPDATE! UPDATE! This event has been CANCELLED.

Don't miss your last opportunity to join us for a Musicale "sing-a-long" at Bay Ridge Assisted Living before the summer season sets in!

We will be gathering a little before 2PM next Thursday, May 26th at Bay Ridge Assisted Living Center (3825 Scenic Ridge Dr.). It is located off of Silver Lake Road between TC West Middle School and the new YMCA. Turn at the "Village of Bay Ridge" sign and follow the road bearing right almost to the end, until you see the only 1-story building on your left which is the Assisted Living building.

Bay Ridge will not require masks or proof of vaccination, but will ask us to sign in and perhaps take temperatures. Although it is not a requirement, it is nice to know how many we can count on, so a quick email is appreciated. Please email [email protected] to let us know you are coming.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Bay Ridge Assisted Living Center, in Traverse City, Michigan, is designed to meet your assisted living needs in a community that truly feels like home.
