As we say good bye to Indian summer, we welcome the cooler
air and slower pace of the autumn season. From warm apple cider, everything
pumpkin and end of season hiking trips, there are so many reasons to enjoy
autumn. William Cullen Bryant says it best, “Autumn, the year’s last, loveliest
smile.” With the seasonal changes now in full swing we see fall flowers
appearing where summer blooms once stood and leaves changing into vibrant
shades of yellow, orange and red. The evening air has a slight chill and
carries the scent of campfires, leaves and cinnamon spice. Our activities turn
from swimming and baseball to raking leaves and football. Not only is Mother
Nature showing her colors, but we begin to show our team colors with a focus on
sports! Join us throughout the month as we bond over sporting events while
cheering on our favorite teams, complete with tailgate parties and snacks.
Throughout October we will show our colors as we sponsor and
support local sports teams. We will honor our associates who show their colors
by “nurturing the spirit of life” with The Juniper Spirit awards. Alas, October
would not be complete without celebrating the season with our annual Halloween
Costume Party, which is open to ghosts and goblins of all ages. Join us this
month and Show Your Colors!
