Greenup Day, A Community Celebration of Renewal

As spring blossoms into full swing, residents, staff, family members and community will come together to celebrate Greenup Day, a cherished tradition that embodies the spirit of community and renewal. This year, the event will be more vibrant than ever, filled with laughter, teamwork, and a shared commitment to beautifying our surroundings.

Starting at 10:00am, residents, staff, family and volunteers  will gather with gardening tools, trash bags, and a shared goal: to clean up our community and prepare it for the warmer months ahead. Together, we will rolled up our sleeves, pulling weeds, and placing mulch, picking up litter, and sprucing up the communal areas of our home. The energy is always infectious with everyone sharing stories and enjoying each other’s company while making a tangible difference in our environment.

After a productive morning, we will celebrate our hard work with a delicious barbecue lunch. The aroma of grilled hot dogs will fill the air, enticing everyone to gather for a well-deserved meal.

Green up day is always a fun day at Mayo, we look forward to!
