A Sunny Day at the Park

Our mission at Juniper Village at the Spearly Center is to nurture the spirit of life in each individual we touch. One of the ways we do that for our residents is to take frequent outings to our beautiful Colorado parks. Being outdoors has been clinically proven to improve both mood and cognition. Ever notice how taking a walk almost immediately clears your head of clutter and negative thoughts? So what better way to nurture our spirits and engage our bodies and minds!

Taking a picnic in the park also gives us a chance to feel our incredible Colorado sunshine, to listen to the birds chirping, to watch the geese chasing each other for a scrap of food, and to engage in the always enjoyable pastime of "people watching" and even better, "dog watching". Of course, we also get to sample some terrific home-cooked picnic goodies fresh out of the Spearly kitchen. Juniper Village . . . . . just another day at the park.
