In March of 2008, the facility where I volunteered , honored the Mayor and Me by putting us in the Hall of Fame Cafe... we were honored for community service.
As a volunteer, I was official photographer and creator of printed posters... above and below are 2 posters.
Baby is my dog, the one with the tongue out, the others were therapy dogs at the facility

You can tell by these shots that I have done some serious PLAYING since 2006
Above and below is Marissa the activities director and below her assistant, Jamie, who is now the director. The sweet pup above belongs to Marissa.
In 2008 they gave me a surprise birthday bash, the man on my left is the chef there.
SEE you on Tuesday, taking Monday off for eye doc appointment.

Happy Birthday...late or early for your 65th!!! I'm a year older than you but not as celebrated...:)JP
Great post and lovely photos, you're really good at snapping that's for sure. How nice to end up in the Hall of Fame Cafe :) Well done you...
I knew you were a volunteer but didn't realize exactly what you did. Kudos! Volunteers are such an important part of a community.
Best,
Bonnie
I had no idea just how much volunteer work you did. And wow, I know someone who is in the hall of fame :)
Love all the shots and that activities director looks like a really fun lady. That shot of her in the witch costume is great
These are fabulous pictures!!!! I hope your eye appt. is just a check up. I have forgotten why you don't volunteer there anymore? I know you were absolutely their best medicine.
you put your playing into good use. bless you.
I love learning a bit more about you and all the things you did with so much love.
Have a great weekend Sandra.
You were a natural at that job!! I wish it could have lasted. Looks like everyone was having fun. You look so nice in the pic with the mayor!!!! I'm sure you gave the nursing home your ALL!
woooo Hall of Fame. That is very cool. Better than the Hall of Shame that's for sure.
Blessings,

Whoo Hoo hall of fame. Your a star girl.
The blog here is wonderful.
I enjoyed it all. You look like your having a ball.
Happy Belated Birthday or early or just right for your 65th!
Take care.
You look so pretty in that photo with the mayor! I'm glad you were recognized for your kindness. What a wonderful place to donate your time! I hear that there are a lot of elderly people that never see their own family...you were their family. :)
When is your birthday???
Hope all goes well at the appointment.
Way to go on being awarded for your community service!
My favourites out of these are the portraits of the woman sitting in the frame, and the man playing guitar! Well done, you!
I am very proud of you girl and I didn't know you were so famous! You sure did a lot of good there. sandie
Congratulations! I'm sure the Mayor was honored to be inducted in the same class with you. I'm sure the Center appreciates all the playing you've done for them.
Those are some great photos Sandra. And from all the smiles I'm seeing in the pictures I would guess you really enjoyed volunteering.
What wonderful memories. You have demonstrated that volunteering is not only a great help to the community, but it is fun, too!!
