Hopkins Creek Hosts Dorothy F. Bailey Ph.D., author of “In A Different Light.”

Middle River, MD –  Women’s History Month.   Join us for a discussion and book-signing event on March 14, 2012 at 10:30 a.m. featuring Dorothy F. Bailey, Ph.D.   This event will be open to the public and light refreshments will be served.  There will also be an opportunity to meet some of the women featured in the book.  IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT illuminates with a passing spotlight a moment in the lives of women who have gathered wisdom for seven decades or more.

Ms. Bailey has been recognized by Washingtonian Magazine as one of the area’s most powerful women.  As an elected official, she has represented the citizens of Prince George’s County, Maryland on the County Council for eight years.  Enjoy with us this discussion as we learn of the wisdom many many have gathered over the years.

 

Hopkins Creek Residents Rock & Roll for Valentine’s Day!

In celebration of the Valentine’s Day Holiday, residents at Hopkins Creek enjoyed a very special night!  A stuffed shrimp dinner, fashion show sponsored by our own Roberta Williams, a red rose for the women, buttoners for the men, music and entertainment with Sal Serio (and yes – Elvis was in the building!) and red velvet cake for dessert – made a delicious and fun evening for all!  Lighthouse Senior Living is always finding ways to celebrate special events so stay tuned for the upcoming St. Patty’s Day festivities we are planning!

RAVENS WON THEIR DIVISION! (But lost race)

15 team members representing each property in Donna Rolnick’s portfolio gathered this morning to lead a Raven’s Victory Pep Rally at Lighthouse Senior Living at Hopkins Creek.  Over 30 Residents from Assisted Living and the Village gathered in the dining room to sing, dance, play trivia, win prizes and tell their favorite football stories.  The community is still a-buzz.  Scotty and her team were truly moved by the gesture and the result.  Everyone was GREAT and we are proud!  Thank you Yorkewood, Perkins Place, Boston Crossing, Rivers Gate, Rivers Crossing, Gray Haven, Fox Glen, and Rosedale Gardens! 

 Sadly, the Ravens’ season ended abruptly in the last minute of the game on January 22, 2012.  Be certain the Ravens and Lighthouse Senior Living will BE BACK this fall!

Hopkin Creek Celebrates!!

The holiday season brought laughter and cheer to our residents as they celebrated with family and friends.  On December 7, Hopkins Creek hosted our Annual Holiday Party and treated the residents and family members to a scrumptious meal, musical entertainment, and of course a visit from Santa!  This is a truly wonderful affair and our residents look forward to it all year.  With over 250 in attendance, the evening was a wonderful success! 

 The residents rang in the New Year with festivities that included a special dinner and dessert, music and dancing with Sal Serio, noisemakers, and a sparkling toast on New Year’s Eve!  Stay tuned for more event announcements over the course of 2012. Lighthouse Senior Living is the place to BE! 

Family Fun for All to Kick of Our Alzheimer’s Memory Walk!

On September 10, 2011, Hopkins Creek kicked off our Alzheimer’s Memory Walk season with a wonderful fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Association!  We had barbeque, music, clowns, face painting,  Rita’s ice, a 50-50 raffle and silent auction, massages, and wonderful deserts for the cake walk!  Many of our residents, staff and resident’s families helped to raise over $800 even before the walk began.   Again, we would like to give a special thanks to all of our venders, residents, families and staff who helped make this day a fabulous success!  Let’s mark our calendars for September 2012 for this wonderful annual event!

All who joined us for the 2011 Alzheimer’s Memory Walk on October 29th had a little “Halloween Surprise” with rain, sleet, and snow in October!  We want to thank Team Lighthouse for braving the weather and helping us to raise an additional $1200 to help in the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease!
