Happenings at Logan Valley Manor


It seemed like February went pretty fast. The weather seemed to continue throughout the month with temperatures below normal. We do have some things to look forward to in March. Daylight Savings Time will begin on the 9th and the first day of spring begins on the 20th. March can be pleasant. In the past, it has been a month that gives us a lot of snowfall. We will just have to sit back and see what comes our way.

I want to congratulate our royalty once again. Our crowned King on the 14th of February was Robert (Bob) Depperman and our Queen was Laverne Gustofson. The Prince was Calvin Burns and Mardelle Cates was the Princess. Our residents, family and friends enjoyed a fun afternoon.

The residents enjoyed a day of making Valentine cards for their families and friends. Craft time is always a favorite activity.

We are planning on having a St. Patrick’s Day party on the 17th of March. We would like to have the residents and staff wear something green. The residents will have a chance to find shamrocks that will be hidden in the lobby. In the afternoon, they will head to the dining room for some snacks and a game of St. Patrick’s Day bingo.

We will be going to Happy Days Senior Center for the noon meal on March 13th and 27th.

Please join us at the manor for any of the activities that you see on the calendar. The monthly birthday party will be moved up one week from the 20th to the 13th of March at 2:00 p.m.

Logan Valley Manor to Crown Valentine’s Day King and Queen


First of all, I would like to thank all of our wonderful volunteers at Logan Valley Manor. You mean the world to the residents. They look forward to seeing your happy faces. The work you do is priceless.

Logan Valley Manor would like to welcome Heather Gies to our facility. She is the administrator. She has been a Director of Nursing in a nursing home in Plattsmouth, NE for the past seven years. She lives in Tekamah. Please stop in and say hi and help make her feel welcome.

We have one resident with a February birthday. Vicky Longwell’s is February 10th, 2014.

The residents and the public enjoy the entertainment we have at the manor. Please feel free to stop in and participate. We have some great performers.

It is time to start voting for Valentine Royalty at the manor. Voting began Mon., Feb. 3rd and will end on Fri., Feb. 7th. Families of the royalty will be notified prior to the crowning on Feb. 14tth. On the 14th we will crown a king and queen, prince and princess at approximately 2:00 p.m. in the lobby.  We will be serving snacks in the dining room following the crowning.

If you have any special talent and would like to share it with the residents, please give the activity department a call at 687-2636.

The residents will be doing some baking this month and having some craft time, which they enjoy very much.

Happy February! Stay warm!
