Carnival Day



In honor of the Erie County Fair we held our own "Fair Day". Everyone had fun playing the fish bowl game, duck pond, bean bag toss and dice raffle. The prizes were also fair themed from cotton candy & lollipops to stuffed animals. The residents also enjoyed corn dogs, french fries, popcorn and loganberry. The sights and smells brought back memories of the good old carnival days. Please visit our website at http://www.edenheights.com/eden.html

Eden Cornfest Parade



One of our biggest summer events is the Eden Cornfest, which is a 37 year tradition here in Eden. Eden Heights was proud to participate in this years festivities with a tent in the fest that had information and giveaways regarding our facility. Our Eden Heights Vets were honored to be invited to a ceremony on Sunday morning in remembrance of all who served. We were also excited to be in the parade for the second year in a row. The residents threw candy and greeted all the children and families along the parade route. We also had our own Eden Heights cheering section along the parade from the residents that came to watch us. It was a wonderful day that brought a new experience to many of us and gave us time to spend with folks from all over WNY and the community.

Eden Heights Family Community Picnic





Our Eden Heights Family Picnic was done in country style this year. Our families and residents enjoyed music from The Country Gentlemen-Gene, Howard & Dan who are one of Eden Heights favorites, country line dancing with Dare 2 Dance and face painting and balloon figures with Kandi Kiss. The food was down home country cooking prepared by our chefs, which included BBQ pulled pork, macaroni salad, chips, pop and apple cobbler. We also had a patriotic afghan made by one of our residents Rose Mariani to help raise donations for the WNY Alzheimer’s Association 2011 Memory Walk. It was a wonderful time to enjoy family, friends, food and fun. Please visit our website @ http://edenheights.com/eden.html
