Please join us for the Intergenerational Day of Play on Thursday, June 11th, from 11 am-2 pm at the Intergenerational Playground at Beverly Park. Bridging the gap between generations.
Intergenerational play between the youth and the elderly creates meaningful connections that benefit both generations. These shared activities bring joy, laughter, and companionship. Young people gain wisdom, patience, and respect for older adults, while the elders often experience renewed energy, purpose, and social engagement. These moments remind everyone that friendship and fun have no age limit.
Lavonda Cantrell is the director of marketing & communities for Hillcrest Healthcare and the vice president of The Hillcrest Healthcare Foundation. She can be reached at lcantrell@hillcresthc.com.
