Look What Lakewood Seniors Are Up To

The finished mural by LSHC residents.

Lakewood Senior Health Campus’ assisted and independent living residents unveiled their latest creation! They transformed a large ugly cement retaining wall into a beautiful life-size nature scene using mosaic tiles made of wood squares. The wall was an unattractive eyesore for residents when they opened the blinds in one of their activity rooms. But after a lot of hard work, they get to see a sunny mountain lake view every day. The men prepped and primed the wood squares, then they were each hand-painted by residents to fit together like puzzle pieces.  The project was coordinated by the facility’s activity director, Margaret Anderson and CherylAnn Meredith, private duty aide and volunteer. Special thanks to CherylAnn’s husband for mounting the mural and to all the residents who spent their time and talents creating this special work of art! The Mural was unveiled on August 17, 2012.
