If you’re not into parties, there are plenty of other wellness, entertainment, and social events during the month that you won’t want to miss.
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is a day dedicated to love. So celebrate your loved one on Feb. 13 at the Annual Cadbury Couples Valentine Luncheon. Couples are invited to the Oakroom at 11:30 a.m. for delicious food, soft music, and warm candlelight to put you in the Valentine’s Day mood. A table for two at Cherry Hill will be a great place to have your Valentine’s Day date!
Don’t have a date, but looking for love? Join residents in the Oakroom at 2:30 p.m. for the Sweetheart Soiree. Pete Inaurato, college television on-air interviewer and anchor, will be singing covers of Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin and other artists. Mingle with fellow residents over delicious desserts and boundless beverages.
Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras (aka Fat Tuesday) is Feb. 17! This tradition includes wearing costumes, masks, and beads, and overindulging before Lent begins. Prepare for the celebration on February 12 with mask making in the lobby led by Alice Alden.
On Fat Tuesday, doughnuts and coffee will be served in the lobby at 10:30 a.m. Wear your mask and join Alice at 2:30 p.m. for a discussion group with beads, music, food, and fun. Mingle with fellow residents and enjoy the party!
Chinese New Year
The Chinese New Year, also known as the Lunar New Year, will be celebrated on February 19 at Cherry Hill. This holiday marks the beginning of the Chinese calendar, and lasts for several days afterward.
Enjoy a Lion Dance (or Dragon Dance), a traditional Chinese dance, performed by the Traditional Wing Chun Academy at 2:30 p.m. There will also be a discussion about what to expect during the Year of the Sheep, including fun facts and trivia.
Wellness Events
Don’t miss yoga by Future Fitness every Monday at 1:30 p.m. in the Oakroom. Improve your strength and balance while having fun with friends.
Follow up with Tai Chi on Tuesdays at 1:30 p.m. in the Oakroom. This slow moving exercise helps improve strength and balance, too. Tai Chi is also known as moving meditation, and is described as a peaceful way to exercise.
If you prefer a daily morning wellness routine, come to the Oakroom each Monday through Saturday for guided exercise at 9:30 a.m.
Social Events
A Jewish focus group has decided that a Shabbat Dinner would be an excellent addition to Cherry Hill’s diverse community. The Shabbat Dinner will be held on Feb. 20 at 5 p.m. in the Braddock Room. Shabbat is recognized as a day of relaxation, spiritual reflection, and spending time with family.
Trivia and Tea will be held on both Feb. 10 and Feb. 24 at 2:30 in the Oakroom. February 10 will be Hat Chat Trivia so bring a hat with you. Feb. 24 will be regular Trivia and Tea. Take along a mug and enjoy some tea while taking a crack at some trivia questions.
Do you want to learn a new hobby or skill? Join the Crochet Group Thursdays at 11 a.m. in the crafts room. Whether you’re a beginner or a master of crochet, this group is for you. The group is currently making dog sweaters for an animal orphanage! Yarn and needles are provided, or feel free to bring your own supplies.
Entertainment Events
Want to try your luck at the casino? Feb. 24 is the PARX Casino trip. We will make our way to the casino at 10 a.m. and return to Cherry Hill by 3:30 p.m.
Have a laugh at this month’s feature at the Walnut Street Theatre. “Private Lives” is a comedy show that will surely be a chuckle. Contact resident Shirley Keown for more details about the trip.
So no matter what it is you would like to do this month, there are many options for you.
