The complete list of activities our individuals participate
in is much greater than this ..
but here are a few highlights
...
• A group of individuals wanted
to go to dinner and a show in style so they rented a
limousine with virgin drinks. They had a great dinner
at Red Lobster and saw Mystere. They had a wonderful
time!
• A
group of individuals saved their money and with some support
from New Vista went on a 4 day cruise to Mexico. Wow,
they didn’t stop talking about it for a few weeks! THROUGH OUR DESTINATION DISCOVERY RESPITE PROGRAM SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS WERE ABLE TO TRAVEL TO NEW YORK CITY AND ALSO ATTENDED A PROM HERE IN LAS VEGAS.
• Some
of the men decided they wanted to go hiking in Zion
National Park. They had a wonderful long day of hiking
and eating, (another favorite pastime). Then they went
to a car show the next day.
• All
of the individuals enjoy New Vista Community’s semi-annual
camping trip to the Valley of Fire. They have such a
good time with hiking, games, campfires, singing, BBQ
steaks, and eating s’mores.
