Paige's club High Schools Against Cancer had their third event at the hope lodge this past week. Andrea did a lot of planning and picked up a number of craft kits for the event so the participants could paint and decorate three different Christmas themed crafts. There was a snow globe, gingerbread house, and gingerbread man mug. Paige's friend Kendall brought a hot cocoa machine and a number of the students brought snacks.
The event started after the residents were served dinner and it was a slow start at first. I was worried that nobody would want to participate, but eventually a number of people came over and they all seemed to enjoy the Christmas music, crafts, and hanging out with the high schoolers.
We hope that we made the holiday season a little brighter and fun for the patients and their family members.
