We love our Scenic Rides with Vic!
These beautiful ladies had so much fun! Sue mentioned how much she loved seeing the skyscrapers downtown. They all loved seeing the changing colors, although a bit too early for Jane's liking. Our residents look forward to seeing the skyline, enjoying each other's company and spending time with Vic, they sign up as often as they can!
Where are some of your favorite scenic routes in our area?

Happy #WellnessWednesday! The Club at Village Shores would like to remind you that as it begins to get colder outside, using the treadmill is a great option to replace walking outside! Using the treadmill helps reduce the risk of tripping, while also strengthening the heart to reduce blood pressure and the risk of heart disease!

October 13- Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day. 💚
Metastatic breast cancer is an aggressive, Stage IV form of the disease that has spread outside of the breasts. It generally starts as early breast cancer before spreading- which is why early detection and treatment is important. In 2017, a study from the National Cancer Institute shows that metastatic breast cancer cases are increasing in number, with 150,000 new cases of MBC in the U.S.
