Live in Wellness: June Events



The month of June is named after the Roman goddess of marriage, Juno. It is no wonder that so many weddings occur during the month of June. As is such, Juniper Communities will be reminiscing about and celebrating weddings throughout the month. June is also the month with the longest daytime hours of the year in the northern hemisphere. Make the best of the extended days by celebrating wellness!

Can the choices you make really affect your health and wellness? Absolutely! Cancer, heart disease, lung disease, stroke and injury, the major causes of death and health problems, can all be prevented by choosing a healthy lifestyle. Simple changes like choosing not to smoke, seeing your doctor regularly, maintaining a healthy diet, exercising and getting enough sleep all contribute to longer life.

This month we finish our quarterly Alive In All Seasons theme of “Let Wellbeing Thrive” by engaging in activities focused on food and nutrition. Look for our consistently health snack and juice options at our hydration stations and dietitian presentations. Our H’Art and Soul of Dining Program will also be showcased as we implement the addition of more regional favorites – focusing on fresh and scratch made, our signature soups and muffin of the day as well as the new grill menu.


Our fabulous activity offerings this month include Joyous Music from “ZPraise” on June 4th at 2:00 pm; Paw Prints our visit with Mollie and our furry friends on June 11th at 10:30 am; our Father’s Day Family Tribute Celebration on June 15th at 2:00 pm; our Happy Hour with Austie on June 20th at 6:00 pm; and our French Fries Social on June 28th at 1:00 pm. Join us this month as we Live in Wellness.

Easter Egg Hunt


Juniper Village at the Historic Shenango Inn hosted their annual Easter Egg Hunt on April 19th at 10:30am.  The weather for the day before Easter was a beautiful sunny 60 degree spring day, the perfect weather for the children in the community to participate in the egg hunt.  Approximately 50 children attended the event, along with their parents and grandparents.  Residents of Juniper Village enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the festivities.   A visit from the Easter Bunny made the kids smile, and three lucky children won special prizes that consisted of an Easter basket with a stuffed bunny and chocolate candy egg.
