State Fair Food Happy Hour & More Summer Fun

State Fair Food Happy Hour & More Summer Fun

September 8th, 2020

With fall just around the corner, we’ve been celebrating the season change with a State Fair food happy hour and other fun summer events at Eagan Pointe. 

Tenants at Eagan Pointe Senior Living recently enjoyed a Happy Hour event as well as samples of Minnesota State Fair foods.

The munchies menu included mini donuts, corn dogs, cheese curds, and deep-fried Snickers on a stick.

These tasty treats made it feel as though we were at the Great Minnesota Get-Together!

Some of the Eagan Pointe Garden Cove tenants recently marked the end of summer with a fun craft. They traced their handprints and used them to create ice cream cone art with help from our Activity Coordinator, Samantha.

Take a look and see how their projects turned out! ?

We recently had some noteworthy events at Eagan Pointe.

One of our tenants, Millie, experienced a private outdoor concert with friends. The weather was perfect, and so was the music! ?

We also celebrated Taylor’s last day with well-wishes and cake. 

Safely Practicing Social Distancing

April 1st, 2020

Eagan Pointe tenants did a sing-along in the hallway while practicing social distancing. Music is always good for the soul! ?

Even our “Eagan Pointe First Floor Ladies,” Wilhemina and Henrietta, are practicing social distancing in the card room.

Christmas Musical Performances at Eagan Pointe

January 10th, 2020

We were able to spread LOTS of holiday cheer thanks to some amazing Christmas Musical performances here at Eagan Pointe Senior Living!

The “Eagan Pointe Carolers” really helped spread holiday cheer around our building this season! The group is made up of Eagan Pointe tenants and is led by our activity coordinator, Nichole. This year, they sang for diners in the dining room and for all three memory care floors. We are so thankful to have such talent right here in our community!

Group members include: Kitty J., Lois K., Susan R., Caren L., MaryAnne W., Yvonne K., Joan D., Jewell S., Marilyn J., Bill H., and Roger J.

The Eagan High School Jazz Band made its annual visit to Eagan Pointe. The performance included some classic jazz numbers as well as some jazzy Christmas carols. The show is always so wonderful!

Happy Hour and Caroling

January 8th, 2019

As the holiday season is winding down, we’d like to share our last few Christmas festivities at Eagan Pointe Senior Living. We had a great holiday happy hour on the Friday right before Christmas. We enjoyed festive drinks, jolly games, and holiday cheer with our friends at Eagan Pointe.

A group of tenants from Eagan Pointe also caroled for their fellow tenants. They were led by our activity coordinator, Nichole, on the guitar. They sang and jingled all the way through the holiday season. It was a great time for the carolers to perform for their friends, and it was a great time for the tenants of Eagan Pointe to see their fellow neighbors caroling.

Art and Performance

Decorating Pots

The ladies from Garden Cove 3 worked hard at decorating the pots that they plan on growing some herbs in throughout the summer!

Eagle Scout Performance

Eagan Pointe Senior Living was asked to help a student from Eastview High School achieve his National Eagle Scout Association Award. Henry, a high school sophomore, wanted to bring music to the senior community and chose Eagan Pointe Senior Living. He conducted a small brass ensemble for about 5-6 songs and a composition he wrote himself. The residents were really impressed with his music and leadership skills. Henry is coming back to do small group performances for the Garden Cove residents, too!
