She is not only a cancer survivor, but her inspirational story has had a positive impact on so many of us here at Walworth! You can read more about Sophia in the Lake Geneva Regional News article.

Our wonderful friends at the Golden Years provided some old traditional spring FUN for the children in Ms. Boldger's junior kindergarten class. Our "May Day" celebration included the exploration of spring pussy willows, and our dance to "tiptoe through the tulips," using scarves as props. The residents enjoyed our rendition of dancing around the very colorful maypole and we loved and appreciated our beautifully decorated May Day baskets that were gifted to us. We reenacted the story "Caps for Sale" and engaged in a sing-a-long accompanied by guitar. We thank Miss Chris and Miss Carol for leading us in this joyful morning. What a gift it was to spend time with you and the "grandmas" and one "grandpa." Thank you...We love you! #MayDay #WaworthGoldenMoments #WalworthJ1

Health Tip #3 ~ The Benefits of Walking
Walking should be continuous and rhythmic.
• Swing your arms and stride along at an even rhythmic pace.
• Do not stroll along and do not stop unless necessary.
• Your foot should hit the ground heel first and roll gradually from heel to toe.
• Your breathing will be faster while you walk, but you should still be able to carry on a conversation.
