Cross Keys Village - The Brethren Home Community

Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."

We took a trip to the Gettysburg Area Recreational Park and walked in the beautiful fall weather. We treated our residents to the infamous Mr. G's Ice Cream. This ice cream shop is located within the Historic Twin Sycamores House built in 1819. There is a Witness Tree out front that "witnessed" President Abraham Lincoln on his way to the Gettysburg Address location. Our Wellness team firmly believes that Wellness includes mental and social health in addition to physical wellness. We were able to laugh and enjoy a tasty treat after a wonderful morning of exercising.
