On Monday April 6th the Barton Creek Bell Choir, consisting of residents at Barton Creek, performed a variety of springtime songs to the delight of all by playing such favorites as "Danny Boy" and "She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain." The choir assembled in the atrium and residents and staff circled their chairs to get a good view. The sun and warmth coming in from the skylights combined with the catchy tunes gave everyone a touch of spring fever.
The Bell Choir meets every Thursday at 10:30 a.m. All residents are welcome to come to practice and to participate in performances. Typically between 12 and 18 people come play. Now is the perfect time for interested residents to join since they will be starting practice for their summer concert.
Throughout the previous year many residents have helped quilt several blankets. These blankets have been raffled and the funds collected are being saved to purchase a new set of bells for the choir. These aren't just any bells mind you... We're going to purchase the Cadillac of choir bells, and we're just one or two blankets away from our goal!
Last weekend a letter was mailed to responsible parties which included a Photo Release Form. These forms need to be signed before we can post the rest of the pictures we took at the performance on Monday. Of course these are not required by the facility but we hope to take plenty of pictures of all our residents so everyone can take part in the fun. If you did not receive a copy of this form you can pick one up at the front desk.
We took far more pictures on Monday that we had room to post, so we are also building a little photo gallery which can be viewed here. As more releases come in, more pictures will be added. We like this photo gallery because family members can download and print pictures of their loved ones! Notice in the column to the right that this address is posted for easy access.
