VTS Detroit YB Manoogian Manor - August Visit
Branch
August 13, 2024 at 4:00:00 PM
This event has always been a favorite because of the quality connections we make and the time we spend with the residents of the manor. We had so much fun serving drinks and popsicles to the residents, listening to the wonderful music being performed, and playing backyard games with the seniors.
By the end, the seniors didn't want to leave, and we had a hard time ending the event too. Many of the seniors told us how happy they were to see us come back time and time again. They were so thankful and can’t wait for the next bonfire.
