Learn more now on our Experience Talks website, and we’ll post a reminder about the show here on the blog on Sunday as soon as the podcast is online.
And before we’re too far past the celebration, let’s take a moment to acknowledge Halloween at Villa Anaheim. Site Leader Nicole Galardo reports: “After many hours of decorating and planning, we successfully pulled off a fun and different kind of party for our residents.

I provided the cake and worked right up until the day before putting the final touches on the Haunted House. It was a festive presentation with a fog machine and black lights, and Halloween themed music.
