Have you heard the term “Spinal Stenosis” and wondered what it is or if you may have it?  Symptoms may include pain, numbness, muscle weakness, difficulty walking, impaired bowel or bladder control, among others. Or, there may be no symptoms at all.

Come hear Dr. Todd Bromberg of Delaware Valley Pain & Spine Institute speak on this important topic.

The Angel Awards were created to recognize people for doing the right things for all the right reasons. At Pine Run, we think it is important to focus on the good that is all around us, and the awards were created to honor specific “good deeds” carried out by our employees as they go about performing their daily work routines.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream Party at Pine Run was replete with culinary delights, twinkling lights, and a dreamy dance by Villager Pat Fey and Champion Junior Dancer Jackson Brexler.

More than 100 partygoers circulated through food and beverage stations extending from the Art Barn to the deck overlooking the pond. Smoked salmon, Swedish meatballs, and abundant Scandinavian cheeses set on wood platters were the perfect complement to the summer solstice celebration held on the longest day of the year.

The happy crowd was drawn to the activity room for the grand finale: a dance to Frank Sinatra’s “The Way You Look Tonight” by Villager Pat Fey and Champion Junior Dancer Jackson Brexler. Their flawless spin capped a blissful start to the summer season.

Life in The Garden, a specialized memory care neighborhood located atop the Health Center at Pine Run, is enriched by familiar pleasures. Administrator Mary Beth Baringer enthused about a Caribbean cruise party full of memorable moments.

On June 1, the S.S. Garden “set sail” for a midday Caribbean “cruise” with more than 100 Garden residents, family members, and crew on board. Island music, nautical decorations, and tropical treats transformed The Garden into a sunlit ship deck. A themed photo booth and spirited dancing highlighted the family fun.

Your body breathes on autopilot — so why worry about how to inhale and exhale? Scientific research is showing that mindful breathing — paying attention to your breath and learning how to manipulate it — is one of the most effective ways to lower everyday stress levels and improve a variety of health-related factors ranging from mood to metabolism. Mindful breath control is all at once a physical health practice, mental health practice, and meditation. It is not just breath training; it’s also mind training that uses breath as a vehicle and can make your entire life better.

Pine Run resident Sylvia Roman knew immediately that Pine Run was the best place for her. What she didn’t know then was that she would have the opportunity to help revive the kiln and pottery room in the Craft Barn!

We want to thank Tracy Mullarkey and Brian Taing, for orchestrating a fun and fanciful family event on Saturday, April 20. Colorful eggs, determined children, and proud parents combined to create a sweet haul for the day!

A jubilant crowd joined in the traditional celebration of spring. Due to nippy weather outside, the bountiful hunt was held inside the Cottonwood Cafe, and the photos capture the enthusiasm and friendly spirit of children hoping to fill their baskets.
