Yearly, we take the fishermen (and fisherwomen) of our facility to the Newton Farm for fun in the sun. We pack a picnic style lunch to be served on the deck. Residents spend the day fishing and snacking in the great outdoors.

With plenty of fish to catch and beautiful scenery to enjoy, this is an event that staff and residents look forward to. It gets bigger every year!
