Homestead Lodge Sends Messages to Grad Class of 2020

Homestead Lodge Submitted

For many years Homestead Lodge has collaborated with local schools to implement intergenerational programs that allow our residents the opportunity to engage with the younger generation and maintain a close connection to our community.

Through these programs, our Residents got to know many of our local students. An example is our St. Mary’s High School students, who would volunteer for extra credit to come and visit and participate in fun, meaningful activities. We are unable to have these programs at this time as we must maintain precautions to protect our Residents, but we all look forward to the day we can reconnect again in person.

Our Residents learned that our local Graduates of 2020 were not able to have a celebration with their peers due to the COVID restrictions. Indeed, we had some interesting discussions about it. To be able to graduate is a huge accomplishment. Our Residents wanted to do something to show their support for the high school grads. I thought a photo challenge would be a great idea. I asked some of our Seniors what advice they would give to this year’s High School Grads, the response was very touching, and we wanted to share it with all of you.

The Residents, Management and Staff of The Homestead Lodge would like to take this opportunity to extend congratulations to the Grad Class of 2020! We wish you all the best as you move forward in the next chapter of your lives!
