Insiders Look: A Week in the Life of a Meadowlea Village Resident
The weekly activities at Meadowlea Village are a never-ending source of pleasure. When each Monday rolls around, residents look forward to playing their favorite card games like Texas Hold ‘Em with neighbors and friends. On Tuesdays, the highlight is the variety of exercise classes set up for all levels of activity and of course more poker, and other exciting multi-player games. The thrills continue on Thursdays with a rousing bingo game for all and if that doesn’t elevate your heart rate there are more exercise classes to peak your fancy. And as all weeks must end with a ‘bang!’ so must this one – Friday nights are reserved for communal jam sessions for all to show off their unique talents and let the creativity flow.
