I just love love love this site - each time I'm glued to the many and awesome ideas to engage with our seniors. I recently downloaded some of the crossword puzzles and these seniors are fabulous to work with. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In this new chapter of my life, as semi-retired, I am so enjoying my time with seniors and watching them light up; I feel I've found a new niche. It's extremely gratifying. As to the cost of membership, it came out of my pocket - I rationalised that it was only about $3/month, less than many magazines. So keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks again Golden Carers!!!!!

Can probably email facilities in the area to see if you can generate some interest
You could suggest having a penpal group or having some residents come to another facility if they are able and play a mutually decided upon game
If you do not want to start with
getting residents together you could talk about problems that you all have
You may suggest that they all join golden carers or at the very least join the Facebook group of golden Carers

Could also modify this

This should give you enough information to start
Just curious what is the purpose of you doing this to management ??
