Our Resident Summer BBQ at Powdermill Village Apartments was truly a celebration of community, bringing residents together for an afternoon filled with fun, laughter, learning, and connection. ❤️☀️🍦
Residents enjoyed delicious hamburgers and hot dogs prepared by our dedicated Maintenance Team, along with sweet treats from a local ice cream truck. Children and families were entertained by Dewey and Bubba the Clowns 🤡 who created amazing balloon animals and sculptures, while The Happy Face Painter added even more smiles with face painting and glitter tattoos. ✨
🐢🌿 One of the highlights of the day was a visit from Forest Park Wildlife on Wheels, who introduced residents to their animal ambassadors, including Gertrude the Turtle, Noelle the Groundhog, and an iguana. Residents had the opportunity to learn about each animal and the habitats they call home, making for a fun and educational experience for all ages.
We were also grateful to welcome Yessenia Rivera, PRSI GAFC Case Manager, who shared valuable information and resources with our community. A special thank you goes to the Westfield Police Department for joining us with a police cruiser that residents could explore, giving everyone the opportunity to interact with officers and meet their beloved emotional support dog.
A heartfelt thank you to all of our community partners, staff, and residents who helped make this event such a success. Days like these remind us that Powdermill Village is more than a place to live, it's a community where neighbors come together, friendships grow, and lasting memories are made. 💗
