WESTBOROUGH – SALMON Health and Retirement joined the Westborough Education Foundation (WEF) for the first Senior Stroll on Nov. 23.
The 11th annual Westborough Turkey Trot was held on the same day. Kerry Paulhus, who is the director of health and fitness at The Willows at Westborough, came up with the idea for the stroll and introduced it to WEF’s Maureen Johnson. Johnson and the WEF team made the stroll a reality.
“I love working for a company that leads with their hearts, we are all making such a difference every day in the lives of all the residents throughout SALMON and I continue to be proud every day that I work for SALMON,” said Paulhus.
The Senior Stroll featured a one-mile walk around the track at Westborough High School. Willows residents, donning Turkey Trot and SALMON gear, departed at 9:30 a.m. and the stroll kicked off at 10:15 a.m. About a dozen residents embraced the challenge along with CEO Matt Salmon, Chief Future Officer Andrew Salmon and COO Shawn Neville.
The SALMON team also set up a hydration station that served over six gallons of hot chocolate.
SALMON hopes to open the Senior Stroll to seniors from across Westborough and nearby towns to showcase how vibrant and connected life in a senior living community can be.
