Sizzling September
The end-of-summer weather has been spectacular here in northwest Connecticut. We have been taking advantage of the beautiful outdoor spaces around our campus with concerts by the pond, cook-outs, farmers markets, and of course the incredible Noble Olympic Games. The residents, staff and community have been bustling with our many events and activities.
We are extremely proud, excited and happy to announce that through your support, we have been able to purchase our new transport vehicle! We are humbled and eternally grateful for your continued support of our beloved residents. Our 2023 Annual Appeal for this much-needed new van was an overwhelming success thanks to you!
The Noble Horizons Auxiliary is gearing up for the upcoming Tag Sale after recently sponsoring their annual lobster meal for residents and staff! The recreation department set the scene in the dining room with their festive decorations and lobster attire. Bruce Mandell played live music, and residents were singing along and tapping their feet while enjoying their wine. Thank you again to the Noble Horizons Auxiliary for continuing to provide such a great treat.
