We've had such action-packed days sharing good times with each other. Now it's time to get caught up sharing our fun with you! Enjoy these special moments captured of Ladies Tea with the local Red Hat Society members, a trip to Richardson's Ice Cream in Boscawen, and the wonderful performance by the talented Carter Mountain Brass Band.

Shout out to the American Legion Guyer-Carrigan Post 22 for their wonderful visit last week! Not only did they take the time to visit, but they also honored us with a wonderful donation to support our veterans for a second consecutive year. We are incredibly grateful for their generosity and continued commitment to our Home. Our veterans enjoyed the bikes and the visits alike. The AL members gave our residents their time, attention, friendship, and gratitude for their military service. It was evident how much respect and appreciation they have. Walt Madore's (the Director's) son was killed in Iraq, and in his son’s memory, this group of riders has made a commitment to annually donate to veteran organizations. We are honored that they chose us again this year and are grateful to this wonderful group of riders for their generosity, continued support, and for making such a meaningful connection with our veterans.

Happy RED (Remember Everyone Deployed) Friday!
Our veterans are very blessed with amazing volunteers. Today's shout out goes to:
- Kathy Yeo and the Tilton Historical Society for helping our veterans record their life stories! Not only did they meet with Gary to document his story, but Kathy also brought a wonderful donation to our Resident Benefit Fund. ❤
- Leslie Bartlett for her dedication leading chair yoga. What a peaceful way to start our day.☮
- Piper (our 4-legged friend) and his mom who brought smiles and tail wags on their visit. 🐾
We enjoyed a final performance from Jack Dunham before he begins his retirement. Best wishes to him as he begins to write this next chapter in his book of life. 🎶
Also caught on camera were Tony and Ken while enjoying the therapy gym equipment.
We hope you also had an amazing day!

Yesterday, we enjoyed an encore of Governor Ayotte's desire to treat our veterans to a delicious steak dinner! It all started with a lighthearted moment over a year ago between Governor Kelly Ayotte and one of our residents while she was visiting our Home when Kelly asked what she could do for our veterans. One replied saying she could give them steak. Hearing and caring, last August, Kelly delivered a wonderful prime rib dinner catered by the top notch team at Onions Pub & Restaurant. Thanks to the generosity of the Governor and her team, and the support of Onions, our veterans were treated to a full prime rib dinner for the second year. Governor Ayotte helped serve meals, spoke with residents, and even cut food for those who needed a hand. She made time for every veteran who wanted to speak with her—and it showed.
She shared laughs, took photos, and fulfilled last year's mention of making this an annual tradition. The wonderful aromas, the sound of good conversation, and the delectable meal created another set of wonderful memories.
We’re very thankful to Governor Ayotte, her staff, the team at Onions, our team of employees, and our volunteers for making this happen!

It's on this Wacky Wednesday! Many thanks to Hiker, our four-legged friend, for coming to celebrate with us - twice in one day. Many staff members sported dog attire and the dog days of summer fashions. Today also brought us 'Black Bear Happenings in New Hampshire', presented by NH Fish and Wildlife Stewards, and 'Faith Talks' with Karen Darling, who came to share about the Baha'i Faith. We thank them both for their time and for sharing their passions with us. Welcome to Al who we had the honor and pleasure of welcoming to the NHVH family while also wishing a very happy birthday to Ken on this action-packed day.
We had too much fun to fit into one post..Follow our page for upcoming pics from our special visit from Governor Ayotte!

Shout out to the amazing supporters of our NHVH Resident Benefit Fund. Thanks to them, we are able to enjoy amazing trips like the one on Wednesday for the Boat House Row concert at the Colonial. This 'yacht rock' had us singing to smooth, mellow music of Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Christopher Cross, Steely Dan, Toto and many more. 🎶

Today's daily list of activities and programs listed 'Music by Ron Banks'. Maybe next time he visits, we'll have to say 'Music and Comedy by Ron Banks'! Amidst the toe-tapping were plenty of chuckles and laughs. Pastor Paul held Bible Study in our beautiful chapel. We were honored to recently welcome new residents Kathleen, Ron and Don, and new employee team members Ryan, David, Richel and Chrissy-Ann to our NHVH family. Brandy in our Business Office was happy to show off her one-month-old granddaughter and (proud big brother) grandson. Speaking of new residents, Social Worker Stephanie invited them - and visiting family members - to meet and talk about this new chapter of life at our Home.
We hope you also had an amazing day!
