Indoor Golf

Thanks to the ingenuity of maintenance staff member Frank Cronin, the residents have a very clever way of playing golf without grass, greens, or the great outdoors.  By setting up a felt mat over our folded-up ping pong table at one end of the room, residents used ping pong balls wrapped in Velcro to try for a hole in one. 

It is a great way to work on your swing, get some exercise, and just plain have fun all at the same time.  One resident, "Spike" Miller (pictured at left), was already well known for taking his clubs to the front lawn to practice his swing; he has taken a huge liking to the new setup - which was christened on his birthday!  You can see him on the left helping another resident perfect her swing.

Many residents and staff members participated in this fun activity by cheering and "coaching", and because of the activity's ease, most everyone could even play regardless of strength level.
