The spooky trail catered to all ages, offering a delightful adventure for our residents and their families.

The air buzzed with excitement, happiness, and the sweet aroma of candy, creating an atmosphere full of sugar-induced joy. Food trucks, popcorn balls, and a DJ added to the festivities, ensuring there was something for everyone. Door prizes, a popular feature, added an extra element of fun, creating an opportunity for attendees to walk away with some exciting rewards.
Participating facilities like Jefferson Healthcare Center, Saybrook Landing, and Pine Grove Healthcare added to the sense of community, making the event a collaborative effort. The overall feel was one of excitement, happiness, and a collective sugar high, bringing people together for a day filled with laughter and shared experiences.
