Hi Kim

What a great idea

Thank you for sharing it

I'm super pumped to try these ideas out next Friday as a POP up unscheduled (calendar) event at our next social hour.

I will pass out & put their personalized invites in residents mailboxes days prior.

We are serving rootbeer and paper bags of popcorn.

I've made wagon wheels out of hola hoops

AND a FREE LIVE Ol' time country band is coming in! 'WE LOVE FREE!!'

Thank you for all your wonderful ideas & sharing!

Thanks for the idea we are always looking for new themes to do so we will try this out in June as we have a country and western singer coming x

Love the idea. I have done a lot of western nights but reading the ideas from golden carers give me a lot of new ideas. Thanks

What a wonderful idea for the summer! When our stampede week takes place in July (Calgary Stampede); our residential facility holds a Cowboy Day event. Your ideas are fantastic and I will share with our recreation team, and our other support services to get these ideas rolling.

Golden Carers is our most useful resource, thank you for all the wonderful ideas over the years.
