For Arrow Senior Living communities, this is the most wonderful time of the year because we get to celebrate 45 Days of Holiday Cheer! In the following weeks, you’ll be taken on a journey through the special events we have planned.
Beginning on Thanksgiving Day, our communities will be honoring acts of gratitude and kindness. December 1st kicks off our celebration of Advent, among other exciting traditions, and concludes with a 12 Days of Christmas Culinary Challenge and moments for Three Kings Day and Orthodox Christmas.

Today rounds out our 45 Days of Holiday Cheer and what better way to do so than celebrating Orthodox Christmas with Story Corner!
This afternoon one of our residents, Joanne, read us ‘The Christmas Blessing’. We also enjoyed a traditional dish called Spanakopita and made our own stars to guide us through the year until next holiday season.

Happy Three Kings Day!!!! We had a wonderful celebration complete with Rosca de Reyes, the traditional King’s Cake! We learned so much about 3 Kings Day from Miriam (with additional info from Betsy too). We’re excited to celebrate this Holiday every year! #arrowcheer # 3Kingsday #vitalianortholmsted
On the 44th day of Holiday Cheer, in honor of Three Kings Day and recognition of Poverty Awareness Month, a few of our residents organized a housewares and clothing drive to donate to a local organization!
With a little help from Austin, our Resident Services Director, all the donations made it to their destination tonight in hopes that someone will be able to cherish them just as much as we did!

It’s day 44!!! It’s Three Kings Day, and to celebrate we made a cake! Three King`s Cake (or bread) is closely allied with the traditions around the Epiphany (January 6th). This date commemorates the visit the Three Wise Men made to the baby Jesus in Bethlehem. In Mexico, the day is a gift-giving holiday. Tradition states this bread be served, garnished with the "jewels" of fruit and nuts.
