You never know what you might find on the calendar today in Neosho. Today was the Puking Pumpkin! Residents questioned what this strange event could be - some thought it was a game, others thought it was something "weird that we stick our hands inside" and there were some comments that they just knew the activity was going to be gross...Then this little guy showed up in their rooms! The initial reactions were hilarious and that dip disappeared very quickly! There are full bellies and smiling faces all around because of the fun brought by our Pumpkin friend.
Shout out to our dietary crew for all they do for us at Medicalodges Independence! We "WHISK" them a wonderful week during National Healthcare Food Service Week!
Residents at Wichita wanted some more of these delightful s'mores! Thank you to Kindred Hospice for sharing goodies with us on a nippy fall day!
Neosho is enjoying the month of October with a variety of Halloween activities. One of the favorite games is the Eyeball Maze. If you think that blowing a ball with a straw through a maze is easy, you're wrong, but there are several who are very accomplished. From start to finish, it is good Fangtastic fun!
Fun times ❤️
We Have Voted! Neosho had a terrific turn out at the polls. Forty-Seven voters showed up to make sure they executed their right and to let their votes be counted in the upcoming election. #vote

Today was the annual Pumpkin Decorating Contest in Neosho. Everyone brought their A game and their best ideas to the contest. Entered was the Witch, Alice, a Mardi Gras Witch, a Spa Pumpkin, a Troll Doll, a Scarecrow, a Princess, a Kitty, a Sugar Skull and a Hocus Pocus. First Place went to the Jail Bird Pumpkin. Second Place entry was the Overdosed Pumpkin, followed by the Third Place Ice Cream Cone. We could not count the Invisible Votes for the Invisible Pumpkin, but it received an Honorable Mention for showing up and bringing a laugh. Residents and staff voted on their favorites and there were so many marvelous pumpkins that it was very difficult to choose just one!
