This little pillow so brightly colored with fall leaves and the saying “Give Thanks” on it to remind us all that we have a lot to be thankful for here at Twin Rivers! The edges were cut and the ladies tied them together and stuffed them until they became a fluffy little pillow.
Hello Easter, by Lora Keeney, Activities Coordinator
April 3, 2012 By
Hello April!!
April’s upon us, though it looks like May, perhaps it’s nature’s joke on us for April Fools’ Day!
With Easter coming very soon, we need to perk up our dining room!
I’m calling all crafters once again, to come together with artistic pen. Let imaginations roll & turn something plain into a magical something with spring color flame!
Our crafters’ work is not nearly done, for we’re making Easter baskets for each & everyone! These cute little baskets will be filled with Easter treats & you’ll probably see the prints left behind of rabbit feet!
We’re making Easter angels to add to our collection. These lavender works of art will just scream out spring perfection!
“Umbrella Fun” is another time for crafters to not miss out on! Splashes of color & plenty of trim make this project an F-U-N, fun one!
It’s time for our “treasure hunt”- be sure to sign up! At Salvation Army we’ll see what we find, then we’ll share some good food –don’t miss out, it’s sublime!
“The Levee Singers” will be here with their joyful fun filled spirits! They’ll lift you up with their voices & smiles – you will definitely want to hear it!
A spring bouquet is next on our crafters’ list to do. It sounds so very simple but this craft may challenge you! But crafters love a challenge & it will stretch your imagination , to craft your flowers, no two alike & be proud of your creations!
Our Kmart trip will help you out with things you don’t find at our store. And the Chinese Buffet will make your day – who could ask for more?
Happy Hour will come alive with the “ Down Home” Bluegrass Band! Listen to the music, join the fun and give the band a hand!
Arm Chair travels to South Africa will be well worth your viewing. The pictures will amaze you with their color & beauty & you’ll find some pictures quite amusing!
May Day Baskets is a great little craft that anyone can get in on! They’re easy to make – even if you shake! And they’ll bring back memories from eons!!
Randy Rolloff is back – the man with the hats & the music just pours right out of him! With a smile on your face you’ll leave the place & with a song in your heart you’ll be singin’!
To the bluffs of Red Wing our van will go, with doughnuts & coffee – “Hi Ho – Hi Ho”! Bring your binoculars, you don’t know what you’ll see – eagles, flowers or the Mississippi Queen!
So let’s enjoy April with it’s clean spring air & join all the activities without even a care!

The ladies had a ball making these potato necklaces. They peeled and cut up potatoes, let them dry for a couple days, painted them and then strung them with other beads. They all turned out so nice.

“Our Campus Friend Cody”
April 20, 2010 By
Hi, my name is Karen Shannon and I am the Marketing Director here on the campus. I have a great story to tell. I bring my dog (Cody) to work with me and he goes and visits the residents. They enjoy him so much on the Campus and he also loves to come. Every Friday we have Happy Hour in the Main Dining room and if Cody does not show up they are asking me “where is Cody”. He is the highlight of Happy Hour. Other times he goes to apartments and snuggles up with them and will stay for hours at a time. He is Twin Rivers companion…
Stop by some time and meet our companion “Cody”.
