What started out as a celebration to welcome back family and friend visits with the residents after the long COVID restrictions. The event has become an annual tradition at the Solon Retirement Village. This year marks the 4th annual Christmas in July celebration for the residents and staff.

This year’s event featured live music from “King Bruce” an Elvis tribute artist, games, photo booth, and food including pulled pork sandwiches, meatballs, cocktail weenies, veggie trays, and an assortment of desserts.

Linsey Jones, Activities Director at Solon Retirement Village stated “ I like giving our residents a reason to celebrate even when it’s not a holiday. It’s fun to decorate the community again with Christmas decorations and to see the residents and staff dressed up. Even though it’s July, the residents and attendees enjoy this festive Christmas event, and it is refreshing for everyone.
