Celebrating the Summer Olympics On August 5 the Summer Olympics began in Rio. At Dinwiddie Health and Rehab we celebrated by holding our own Olympic themed games and celebrated our support for Team USA. We began the morning with an opening ceremony. As two of our staff members were singing our National Anthem, a resident brought in a “torch” symbol and sat it on the center table. The day was followed by ring toss, pool noodle tennis, and a pool noodle “javelin” throw. We ended the afternoon with Olympic themed snacks. Everyone had a wonderful day full of fun and LOTS of laughs.

DHR staff show their support for Team USA by dressing in red, white and blue for the day.
