We have ben struggling to make progress with Alex cause he has moved classes we hope that we can more progress and get some more connection with him sooner than later. However we have discovered the neighborhood we are now targeting and we have scoped out the area next to the arboretum we love the great scenery there and maybe it could be the place to where we may hold an event or something or maybe a little service. We like to continue the progress we have made and eventually get the calendars out. We have one completed and now we just need to get ahold of Alex outside of school to complete the task. We are eager to finally release our first calendar!

Last week I failed to put up a blog page I had a lot. on my plate and I was busy with a couple of family get togethers for the passing of my aunt. But now Im sending the blog to the website! Last week we decided that we wanted.to change up our angle of attack and focus on a retirement community that would make it easier for us to get in and out without having to go through the manager of Villa Rose. They were very uncooperative and never gave us the time of day which is very sad. However we are going to step it up for the community that we are now focusing on. I live very close to this retirement neighborhood and hopefully this makes it easier for us to complete our tasks.
Our project is a more small community type of thing we want to stay away from the Hashtags and social media. I think that it would be a great idea to bring back the "good ole' days" and completely through out the devices and spread our words by mouth and going door to door handing these out. Seeing a physical smile is better than any like you can get online. We are planning to finally release these calendars to the home very soon (hopefully without another hitch). We are proud to know that if this works we will improve their life just a little bit by letting them know that someone cares and wants them to be involved and happy.Thank you for reading this blog sorry for lacking on the last post Ill try to be better next time! We have attempted to contact Villa Rose several times and they have always been busy or the manager has been out of the building. We are planning on trying one more time because we have set up everything and all is ready to be sent out and given out to the citizens of Villa Rose. We plan to do another back up plan if all fails. But we are not going to back down easily. We are going to try and try again to try and attempt to get this done and get the ball rolling. However if we don't get the ball rolling we have spoken about an interviewing process if all goes wrong. The plan would be in its early infant stages but it would be the best we could do. However we have to gotten the go ahead from Villa Rose we have still completed the calendar and it is ready for its release. We have the December inspired recipes ready and set to go out.
-Sam Neumann - This is a make up for my missed blog posts. In the past we have started making our calendar and made our call script. We have decided to release a calendar for every month. These calendars will include several different recipes that our participants can choose from. We offer these calendars to Villa Rose that is based is Bethalto Illinois. They are a retirement home for the older members of the community. We chose this location because our partner Alex’s grandmother lives here with a few other of our loved ones. We had heard complaints of the food being bland and flavorless. We decided that for our project we would help make simple easy recipes that don’t require any stovetops or hard to use equipment. This will hopefully help cure the problems we heard from the residents over at Villa Rose. This has been a look into our past of the project.
Now for the present! We have yet to get a date from Villa Rose because of our difficulties contacting them however this isn't slowing us down. We are just beginning to create a few of the planned ads that we are planning to do for the movie night over at Villa Rose. Our plans for right now is to contact Villa Rose and get our scheduled ads up in the movie nights. If we can get this done the ball will start rolling we will be able to start offering up the calendars and start distributing the recipes and goods that they have ordered. We have decided that it would be far to expensive to send materials for the full 31 recipes. So we have decided that it would be a far better plan if we had the participants choose and pick out what they want to try. This would help keep down the allergy issue and the over all trouble of selective taste. Look Into The Future! As soon as we get the advertisements out to the public of Villa Rose we will be able to get our project up and running officially. We plan on getting our first calendar out and receiving orders for a monthly inspired recipes. We will have our advertisements shown at all the movie nights before the big premiere of the scheduled program. This should attract participants to our cause and hopefully it would help the problems that we have heard. In the next couple months our calendars will be sent out to the residents’ of Villa Rose. We will receive the orders and fill them. We will deliver the orders to each of the residents’ apartments and with our deepest hope they will love them and continue to order more. We understand that money will be hard to have on hand so all of our recipes will be very affordable. We hope to keep money out of mind and the least of our concerns. All of the money that is given to us will be used to purchase the ingredients for the recipes. We will work the math and make sure that in the end we will have an exact amount of money so we do not attempt to make any profit from the project. In the end we want to help resolve the problem that we have heard so much of. Thank You Miss Forrester for the idea! Hello, I am Sam Neumann and I am updating the teams blog this week. We have finished our call script and now we are ready to act. on the first steps of our project. We have also begun work on our calendar part of the project. So within a weeks time we should be able to get the green light from Villa Rose. We also need to touch base with them on the movie night commercials. We will release our December calendar at the end of November with our projected time line. We have gotten off it a little at the beginning but now fall sports are over and we have an easier time to get into contact with each other. We have a little sneak peak on our calendar recipes too. We have found a recipe for peanut butter towers that we feel will brighten anyones day with their cute presentation and standout flavor. Thats all we can share for now our next update might feature a new sneak peak but thats all for this week folks.
