A Field Trip and Celebration at Clotilde/Merlo Park
On a bright and sunny day, a group of about 12 Sycamore Glen residents set off on a field trip to Clotilde/Merlo Park in Sterling City. With Chico experiencing sweltering 110-degree heat, the idea of escaping to the cooler, 90-degree shade of the park was a welcome respite. The anticipation was high as residents packed their sack lunches, filled with delicious treats from Trader Joe’s, and prepared for a day of outdoor fun.
As the group arrived at Clotilde/Merlo Park, they were greeted by the serene beauty of the park’s lush greenery, tall trees, and peaceful atmosphere. The cool breeze and the shade provided the perfect setting for a relaxing day away from the hustle and bustle of Chico. Residents quickly found comfortable spots to settle in, unpacked their lunches, and began to enjoy the day.
One of the highlights of the field trip was the celebration of a resident’s birthday. The group came together to sing and share in the joy of the occasion, with brownies making the celebration even sweeter. Laughter echoed through the park as residents shared stories, reminisced about past adventures, and enjoyed each other’s company. It was a day filled with warmth, both from the sun and from the bonds of friendship that were strengthened during the outing.
The field trip to Clotilde/Merlo Park was more than just a day out; it was a reminder of the vibrant community that thrives at Sycamore Glen. Our residents are not just neighbors; they are friends who support and uplift each other, making every moment special.
