Giant Scrabble Challenge

7 July 2023

We had a delightful outing to our sister home in Brockenhurst for a friendly game of scrabble.

The warm smiles from the home manager and staff made us feel right at home as we entered the main dining room, where the Woodpeckers Residents warmly welcomed us. The game began with Woodpeckers taking the first turn, and both teams displayed their competitive spirits with lots of interesting and challenging words.

As the game progressed, the excitement grew, and the scores kept climbing. In the end, the final scores were 166 for Woodpeckers and 130 for the opposing team. With great enthusiasm, we declared the winner of this game to be none other than the Woodpeckers team! We congratulated them on their well-deserved victory.

Resident June Moonan shared her thoughts, saying, “It can be a challenging game that really gets your mind thinking!” Indeed, scrabble is a wonderful exercise for our minds and a fun way to spend time together.

Overall, it was a fantastic afternoon filled with friendly competition and joyous moments. We look forward to more opportunities to share enjoyable activities with our sister home in the future. Well done to the Woodpeckers team for their success in the scrabble game!
