Summer weather has returned to Bolingbrook with a real feel of 104 degrees!! While we avoided the heat today, we’re still basking in the summer sun in our art room.

We geared up for the heat by making some visors to protect our eyes and skin. It’s such a joy to watch our residents flex their creative muscles and connect with each other!

Collaboration is key 🔑 👭

Residents joined together to complete a summer banner for our Art Room! Everyone grabbed some markers, picked a spot, and left their unique mark on the canvas.

Encouraging teamwork and socialization is an important part of our activities programming. It offers connection, learning, and a sense of belonging. We make sure no one ever feels alone or left out, even if they don’t join in on the activity of the moment.

You can always count on your Encore team of staff and residents 💪
