Warm weather provided the perfect backdrop for the annual Mount Vernon At Home Ice Cream Social held May 14 at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church.
Hosted by Mount Vernon at Home, an organization dedicated to helping older adults age independently and remain active in their community, the ice cream social drew members, volunteers and local residents. Tables were filled with an array of ice cream flavors and toppings, from classic vanilla and chocolate to fresh fruit and sprinkles, inviting guests to build their perfect sundaes.
Mount Vernon At Home is part of the Village network, serving local residents aged 55 and over who are choosing to remain in their homes and communities as they age. The Village to Village Network consists of over 300 villages across the country like Mount Vernon At Home.
Founded in 2007, Mount Vernon At Home now has 140 members plus 30 volunteers and offers a full array of activities and services. For more information on services offered or how to volunteer, visit www.mountvernonathome.org.
