We are partnering with the Montpelier Senior Activity Center once again to bring holiday cheer to seniors in need with our “Shoeboxes for Seniors” fundraiser. We are beginning to collect shoe boxes and donations for this wonderful holiday tradition. Each year, we collect toiletries, clothing pieces and other items, then pack them into shoeboxes and donate them to local seniors who may not have these resources. Our goal this year is 75 boxes! Please deliver items to the cubby room basket. Monetary donations can be left with Lauren. This is a wonderful way to make a difference during this giving season!
This familiar-made-fantastical rendition of the classic ballet, set in the 1970s in Vermont, delights audiences with its many local references, including a Maple Sugar Fairy instead of a Sugar Plum Fairy, loggers instead of Russian dancers, winter birds instead of tea, The North Wind and leaves instead of flowers, and a moose instead of reindeer pulling Marie’s sleigh. The van will depart Westview Meadows at 1pm.
Get cozy next to the fire and relax with a seasonal spirited beverage. We’ll reminisce and share stories about our favorite holiday traditions.
Join one of our talented residents for an informal lesson on watercolor painting. This month the group will be painting holly leaves!

Come along on an adventure into the depths of a northern winter with Anders Morley, winner of the 2021 National Outdoor Book Award for travel writing, as he presents This Land of Snow, the story of his four-month journey through the wilds of northwestern Canada on cross-country skis. More than just a tale of adventure, This Land of Snow is a meditation on the coldest season and on the approach of mid-life, which Booklist’s Brenda Barrera has called “a captivating memoir” and “an eloquent ode to the harsh beauty of winter.” Morley will discuss and share anecdotes from his journey, read from his book, and show photographs from along the way.
