Activities
The mission of the Activities Department at MVNRC is to provide our residents with opportunities encouraging socialization, physical and intellectual stimulation, and personal growth.
Activities Favorites
Activities are planned for various group sizes, abilities and interest levels. For some residents, a friendly visit
brightens a day; others may eagerly anticipate large group activities. Popular activities include performances by guest
musicians and children, ice cream socials, monthly birthday parties and, the all-time favorite, BINGO!
Family members are always encouraged to participate with their resident. In fact, many of our most dedicated volunteers got "hooked" while accompanying their resident to activities events. Our wonderful volunteer corps lends extra energy, enthusiasm and creativity to our programs.
