Terrace Talk - June 2009


Jennings Terrace News Updates & Reminders

Warm weather is here and it is time for air conditioning window units to be placed in Sheltered Care windows. If you already have a small unit, staff will install it for you. Jennings Terrace also has several air conditioning units available for sale. Just a reminder, an additional fee will be added to your monthly rate of $25 for utility costs related to electricity usage. If you have any questions or are interested in securing an air conditioner for this season please contact the main office.

Just a reminder to please label all personal items and clothing with the resident's name, even if the family is doing the laundry.

• Jennings Terrace Board Member Jack Smith and the Carousel of Sound DJ Service for producing the great Vintage Car Show event on May 24th. The weather was fantastic and over 33 cars participated in this years event.

• The Jennings Terrace Auxiliary members supplied home baked goods and sold beverages. Our own Chefs Juan and Jorge manned the grill and served up an assortment of hamburgers, hot dogs, spicy brats and sweet Italian sausages for those attending.
