Grandparent’s Day Celebration a Big Hit at Heritage Park Anaheim!
About 30 residents, kids and grandkids converged on the clubhouse last week at Heritage Park Anaheim for an impromptu summer celebration. Grandkids got the opportunity to listen to what their grandparents did during the long summer days of the past—before there were personal computers, cell phones and electronic games to occupy one’s time!
Everyone enjoyed a meal, face-painting, the decoration of drums that were later used during a drum circle and a norteño-style music performance by the grandsons of a HPA resident. There were door prizes as well—when one 6-yearold started to cry because he didn’t get the prize he hoped for, a seven-year old came over, hugged him and gave him half of his door prize! Residents were given photos of their family, printed on-site, and placed in a commemorative card.
