African American History Month
March 3, 2022
Last week, Shem Creek residents celebrated African American history week. Residents received sweetgrass roses during happy hour. Staff and residents learned about African American inventors and represented them with “Who Am I?” nametags. Residents also made a collage of famous African American Olympians.< /p>
