The Neosho Newton County Library concluded the Summer Reading Program Tails and Tales on July 30th. In addition to the prizes, our participants were treated to a Braum's ice cream party. Our residents look forward to all of the fun things that the library offers. Also in the month of July, they received craft kits from the Neosho Newton County Library that were not only patriotic but inspired their creativity.
Neosho celebrated birthdays throughout the month of July. Our birthdays were Toni, Angela, Linda, Debra, Avanelle, Helen, Sally, and George. Happy Birthday!
Blair Hoyt was elected by the Neosho Resident Council to be the July Resident of the Month. A retired Air Force Veteran, Blair spent 20 years, 2 months and 26 days serving our country and we are very grateful for his service. These days he spends his time visiting with family and friends, keeping up with current events and making time for parties, movie time and bingo. He is a joy to be around with a very pleasant disposition. We are happy to celebrate Blaire in the month of July, congratulations on being the Resident of the Month!
It's National Milk Chocolate Day so we celebrated at Butler with soaking up some sun and a little "kiss" from our Activity Director, Stephanie! We think Flamingos make a great addition to any celebrations so residents had some fun making these festive little gals to brighten up the place!
Residents at Leavenworth enjoy cardio drumming to get their hearts pumping! A highly engaging, non-traditional fitness activity. Everyone should try it!!

National Daiquiri Day happens each year on July 19th and we did not let this day go by unnoticed. In 1898 Jennings Cox created the first daiquiri following his mining expedition in Daiquiri, Cuba. In 1909 the daiquiri recipe debuted in America in the Army & Navy Club in Washington, D.C. courtesy of Rear Admiral Lucius Johnson. Legend also tells the tale that Ernest Heminway dreamed up his own version of the cocktail in the 1940s in Havana, Cuba that brought the frozen concoction to fruition. Famously one of favorite drinks of John F. Kennedy, it is also one of the oldest, sweetest and most popular drinks ever served. In 2021 it was an enormous hit amongst staff and residents at the Neosho Medicalodge . We chose strawberry as our daiquiri of choice this year, what is your favorite?
Congratulations to Fort Scott's top winners in the watercolor painting that were submitted in the Bourbon County Fair! Beautiful work everyone!

Wondering what to do this afternoon? Enjoy an ice cream cone and celebrate National Ice Cream Day! In 1984 President Ronald Reagan named the third Sunday in July as National Ice Cream Day. What's your favorite flavor?
