A little music, dancing and a whole lot of fun!

A few A.G. Rhodes Atlanta elders and care partners had a wonderful time at the Mayorโ€™s Senior Ball earlier this month, a special opportunity to get dressed up, enjoy time together and celebrate alongside older adults from across Atlanta.

Thank you to the City of Atlanta Government and Mayor Andre Dickens for hosting this wonderful tradition and making our elders feel so special!

For A.G. Rhodes elder Marvin Wiggins, baseball has been a lifelong passionโ€”from childhood trips to Yankee Stadium to playing the game himself for many years. Today, that love of the game is as strong as ever.

Thanks to Second Wind Dreams featuring the Virtual Dementia Tour, Marvinโ€™s family, the Atlanta Braves, and our team at A.G. Rhodes Atlanta, Marvin recently had a dream fulfilled with a trip to see the Braves play and some very special baseball memorabilia, including a Willie Mays-style glove.

We are so grateful for all those involved in making this unforgettable experience possible for Marvin, and to Monique John at CBS Atlanta for sharing this beautiful story!
