What started out as sticky notes on our windows to deter the birds from hitting them, into an amazing little art work activity from the staff here at the Newbrook Lodge.

We have some VERY talented staff members who are now drawing pictures based on requests from our residents.

We also included a window for Residents, Staff, Family and Visitors to sign and decorate. It’s been a very fun activity for all.
