The Bristal understands the important role that staying socially active plays in keeping ourselves happy and engaged – we all feel better when we make time to have fun! Our team of recreation professionals are continuously seeking new and innovative way to help residents stay active. From painting projects to themed dance parties, there is an activity for everyone. Here are just a few of the ways we’re staying active:

The Recreation Team at The Bristal at Wayne loves finding ways to turn everyday moments into special occasions. A recent trip to view the cherry blossoms at Branch Brook Park became something more when Beata, Director of Recreation learned the park was where a resident had her wedding pictures taken. Prior to the outing, Beata contacted Sara F.`s daughter, who sent a picture of her parents on their wedding day. Beata surprised Sara with the picture before arriving at the park, and listened as Sara reminisced about her wedding day.
