This is the first in a new series of posts called “#EnjoyLifeWithUs,” that highlight the uniquely fun activity and event offerings that are a way of life at Cedar Haven.

On August 21st, our residents were able to enjoy our  “Cruisin’ on the REC Trail” car show as local car enthusiasts drove their antique and modern cars to our grounds for the annual event.  The Cedar Haven Car Show is always free to attend and for participants as well, as it is designed and orchestrated for the enjoyment of our residents.

Marcia Krause, our Director of Administrative Services, stated that “Watching the faces of our residents while listening to Dean-o sing “God Bless the USA” at our Car Show gave me goosebumps!” She went on to say that “They, as well as I were moved by Dean-O’s performance of this popular song.  It was a beautiful day for the Car Show, and we are very appreciative of the car owners who participated in this wonderful event.”

Marie Anderson, Director of Therapeutic Recreation at Cedar Haven, wanted to express thanks to the team who made the special event possible: “Thank you to the TR team for all the hard work with helping to facilitate the Car Show,” she said. “Chris Heisey did it again this year. All of her hard work paid off: the residents, visitors, staff, and drivers had a blast at the Show.  The Car Show would not have happened if it was not for her, we hope she plans on continuing the tradition.” We hope you all enjoy the fun pictures from the event below.

Thanks for another great year cruisin’ with us on the REC trail!

This is the part of a new series of posts showing how residents #EnjoyLifeWithUs at Cedar Haven Healthcare Center. Marie Anderson, our Director of Therapeutic Recreation, and the rest of the Cedar Haven team worked together with students from Cedar Crest High School and Northern Lebanon High School to throw a fun-filled event for the enjoyment of our residents. 

We are very thankful to everyone who made the 2019 Senior Prom at Cedar Haven a smashing success last month, including DJ Mike Swisher, Mrs. Steckbeck and her Cedar Crest High School students, and a group of thoughtful students from Northern Lebanon High School. 

Marcia Krause, our Director of Administrative Services, shared the following comments with us about this unique event: 

“Music is a universal language. You can hear just one or two notes of a song – and you’re right back in that moment, back in that day, back at the prom. I saw the memories in the faces of our residents as they had a wonderful time at the ‘Morning Under the Stars.’ Many shared comments of how they loved to dance, how much they fun they were having and asking when we are going to do it again. It was a lovely day for them and once again our Therapeutic Recreation Department went above and beyond in making it a day for our residents to remember.”

We hope you enjoy photos of the students dancing, which brought big smiles and fond memories to mind for many of our residents, as well as the glamorous and fun prom attire that was worn by staff during the event.

Once again, we would like to extend a warm thank you to our talented activities team and this thoughtful group of students and for planning and taking part in such a fun, uplifting event for our residents to enjoy.

While Cedar Haven offers a number of fun events for residents each week, we always particularly enjoy when young people from the Lebanon community comes to visit. We hope all of you students have a great summer! Thank you for meeting us “under the stars.”

Holidays at Cedar Haven are always festive and fun. Easter was no exception this year. In addition to an Easter meal for all residents and staff, our residents enjoyed coloring Easter eggs with a group of students from Cedar Crest Middle School who volunteer with us regularly. Perhaps one of the biggest hits was an impromptu crafting session to make Easter bonnets! Please enjoy viewing some of the photos of our residents enjoying Easter with us at Cedar Haven below. Remember, you can always view our full event calendar on our Events page.

Thank you to Marie Anderson and her activities team for making our residents smile everyday and to Ray Truex and his students for bringing your joy and excitement to Cedar Haven! We hope you all had a happy Easter and are enjoying Spring in Lebanon!

This year’s Winter Wonderland was a smashing success! Though the polar vortex has visited Lebanon and the rest of the East Coast with sub-zero temperatures this month, our residents were able to enjoy some winter cheer in the cozy recreation room at Cedar Haven Healthcare Center. The event featured lots of snowy scenes sure to bring back memories of winters past and some hot chocolate for all to enjoy.

Residents had fun assisting with preparations for the event by helping make the snowballs. One of our residents knitted the scarf for the large snowman as well as a decoration for his hat!

Winter Wonderland is one of up to 100 fun activities and events that take place at Cedar Haven each month. No wonder our residents are busy enjoying life at Cedar Haven with their friends and the Cedar Haven team.
