Yerington's Garden Rocks

WooHoo for Ann Marie, our staff, and our residents out in Yerington at Yerington Garden Apartments. For a complex with so many challenges (in respect to resident interaction) they have pulled together nicely with the motivation from Ann Marie and grown themselves a beautiful community garden. What a positive thing to accomplish! See the updated slide show and see how it's grown into an award winner.~ Missi

SunRiver BBQ

SunRiver Apartments had a Labor Day BBQ.

There was a good turn out. A lot of residents came and enjoyed food, conversation and fun.

We even got out a karoke machine and the residents, including a 93 year old resident rocked out!

Some residents who have lived here several years still did not know each other. This was a fun way for everyone to get to know their neighboors.(see slide show) - Michelle West

Labor Day

The first Labor Day in the United States was observed on September 5, 1882, by the Central Labor Union of New York.  It became a federal holiday in 1894, when, following the deaths of a number of workers at the hands of the US military and US Marshals during the Pullman Strike, President Grover Cleveland put reconciliation with the labor movement as a top political priority. Fearing further conflict, legislation making Labor Day a national holiday was rushed through Congress unanimously and signed into law a mere six days after the end of the strike.

Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer.  Families with school-age children take it as the last chance to travel.  Labor Day marks the beginning of the NFL and college football seasons. NCAA teams usually play their first games the week before Labor Day, with the NFL traditionally playing their first game the Thursday following Labor Day.  The holiday is often regarded as a day of rest and parties. Forms of celebration include picnics, barbecues, fireworks displays, water sports, and public art events.   In Elko it is last day of the County Fair and Horse Races.

How ever you celebrate ~ have a great week-end!
