July 2016 Events in Aurora, CO: Stand in Integrity

Ah...the good old summer time filled with lazy, sunny days, ice cold treats, Independence Day celebrations, and get-togethers at the beach. Another sure indication of summer is our Alive in All Seasons theme of Volunteerism.

July is the perfect month to honor all of the many volunteers who contribute thousands of hours of time in service to our communities. From our four-legged volunteers to those of the two legged variety we are proud to say we receive more than 10,000 hours of precious time each year. We simply could not do it without all of your help, and this month we honor you. We will also be promoting the spirit of volunteerism by volunteering our time to help others. If you have some spare time on your hands consider joining us for a volunteer activity or better yet volunteer your time with us, we’d love to have you. What qualities make a good volunteer? Energy, passion, flexibility, creativity, reliability, commitment and perhaps most important of all – integrity.

Volunteerism benefits all parties involved. In addition to making new friends, volunteering also helps increase your self-confidence, provides a sense of purpose, combats depression and helps you stay physically healthy. Helping others also kindles happiness, as the London School of Economics found the more people volunteered, the happier they were.

In addition to volunteering opportunities, plan to join us during July for our summer celebrations and share our thanks as we honor those who Stand In Integrity with us.

Our fabulous July 2016 events in Aurora, CO at Juniper Village at Aurora include our:

§  Red, White & Blue Backyard BBQ because there’s no better way to celebrate volunteerism than to honor those who have voluntarily served in our armed forces, come celebrate with those most responsible for our freedom on July 4^th from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm.

§  Juniper Volunteer THANK YOU Luncheon for the best crab cakes the front range has to offer, made fresh by our very own award-winning dietary team because volunteers are what help to keep our seniors entertained and active, and it’s time we say thanks, so come join us for lunch and we will find a way for you to get involved in our volunteer program on July 18^th at noon.

§  Virtual Food Drive to stop by or take to social media to keep up with the times because the trendsetters here at Juniper are keeping the spirit of volunteerism alive with our first ever VIR-TUAL food drive as we have partnered with the Food Bank of the Rockies to help those in need make it through the hot summer months between July 25^th and July 31^st any time.

We look forward to sharing our July 2016 events in Aurora, CO at Juniper Village at Aurora with you as you Stand in Integrity.
