Kris King, activity director, makes Suzanne Elise just as fun. She gives residents, whose average age is 85, non-stop choices of things to do in the music room, the garden and the community. They make regular visits by van to the Promenade and to Seaside shops, or go out for movies and picnics. They have happy-hour tea parties and piano recitals. The Garden Club grows and donates harvested items for meals.
Pets come by for visits every week and kids come weekly for visits and recitals.
Vespers are held weekly. Cookie-baking takes place once a month. The public library Bookmobile comes once a month. Families use the oven for take-out dinners and pizza parties. Crafts, card games and birthday parties are regular events.
