The 2015 U.S. Women’s Open is coming to the Lancaster Country Club, Lancaster PA. This past Monday, The United States Golf Association announced it has accepted a record 1,873 entries for this year’s championship event—a number that is clearly an indicator of the growing interest and support for women golfers. Folks from all over will be clubbing it up July 6 through July 12, 2015, and the best part is you don’t have to be an avid golfer to enjoy the fun.

Baby boomers are getting older. By the year 2030, it's estimated that adults over 65 will make up 20 percent of the world's population. While some of these adults will continue to live in their homes, many will seek the comfort of maintenance-free retirement options. Research conducted by Center for Housing Policy projects the doubling of the 65-plus population, over the years to come, will shape the demand for senior housing and supportive care services. What does this mean for senior housing providers?

A friend to the end. That's what we all look for. Someone willing to stick with us through the good times and the bad. Someone we can count on. Someone who will have our back no matter what. How far does one have to look for a friend like this? Apparently, for four sisters living at Westminster Place at Bloomsburg, not very far.
