JDRF 5K

On a beautiful Saturday in April you want to go walk 5K or 3.1 miles don't you? Well, these folks did and they did it for a great cause! They biked, they walked, and they ran 5K for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. We raised over $200 at the walk with 21 walkers. We had resort guests, employees, managers, and homeowners all sharing the road. Before the race was water, fruit and bagels and after pizza and brownies! Go Team Bluegreen! Thanks for helping us reach our resort goal of $1000 raised for JDRF!

Shenandoah Crossing Springs into Eggsitement!

Easter weekend brought us glorious weather and lots of fun activities here to Shenandoah Crossing! We kicked off the weekend with a Bunny Hop dance held Friday night. There was a donation at the door collection for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) and we raised over $100. It was lots of fun to see all ages out dancing to the tunes of our DJ Olivia.

On Saturday the fun continued with a Moon Bounce for the kids, crafts on the tennis courts which included Easter Egg decorating (really cool method using aluminum foil and paint! http://familyfun.go.com/crafts/egg-dyeing-aluminum-foil-technique-668379/), Chic making, Egg Scratch offs and magnets for the fridge in either a frame or egg shape. The Easter Bunny made an appearance and posed for pictures with the kids too! Then came the egg hunt! Over 2000 eggs found and cracked open for the prizes inside - all done in under 10 minutes! LOL!

On Easter Sunday we had a Bake Sale for JDRF and Easter Bonnet making for the kids. At 2 pm there was a parade around the Great Hall showing off the bonnets to the folks gathered there.

A great time was had by all! Thanks for coming out and enjoying Easter Weekend here at Shenandoah Crossing!
