Shooting guns at people is generally a No-No; certain circumstances excepting, of course. Shooting them at the people you rely on for your daily needs? From your wheelchair? Lisa Beach, Activities Director at Continental Manor Nursing Home in Blanchester Ohio, thought that would be great fun! From the looks of things, she was right.
As staff members at Continental began decking the facility with boughs of holly and artificial Christmas trees, Ms. Beach sustained a thought-related shot to the heart; let’s take some residents to the woods and go hunting.
“I got the idea to turn our dining room in to a forest and bring out all of the Christmas trees before we decorated them. It was such a blast,” Ms. Beach said, per SunnySkyz.
Gathering the necessary gear, she outfitted a delighted group of Great White-Haired Hunters with colorful weaponry before scaring up game from all around the Home. The hunt was on! Residents gleefully gathered and took turns launching soft-tipped arrows from their Nerf guns toward a small herd of reindeer gallivanting through the Dining Hall Christmas decor. Reindeer named Megan Nicole, Jackie Feirl and Andria Slone – staff members who volunteered to take a shot for the team. And, create mountains of smiles that go on for miles and miles . . . enjoy the fun, vicariously!
Three videos from the Continental Manor Facebook account – I am not able to embed Facebook videos – might try to figger out how one day, that won’t be today. Please click the links if interested in viewing the fun!
