🎉 Happy Activity Professionals Week, South Carolina! 🎉

This week is all about you.

You are the planners, the pivot-on-a-dime pros, the joy-makers, and the steady presence when things get messy. You show up with heart, creativity, and grit — even on the hard days — and you do it because people matter to you.

Thank you for the laughter, the connection, the calm in the chaos, and the moments that truly make a difference across our communities here in South Carolina.

We see you. We appreciate you. And we are so grateful for the work you do.

🌟 What a fantastic Lunch & Learn today! 🌟

A huge thank-you to Renee Bledsoe for leading “I’m Burnt Out. Help!” — an inspiring and refreshingly honest session that reminded us all how to refill our own cups before they run dry. ☕💪

Attendees walked away with new tools, laughter, and plenty of “aha!” moments. If you missed it, don’t worry — there’s always next time!

✨ Don’t miss out again!

🔙 10 Years Ago Today… 🔙
Photo credit to Linda — this was our Chair Chi Exercise One Day workshop even! About 65–70 people joined us for a full day of movement and fun! 🪑💪

We’ve learned a lot since then — like how mixing things up keeps everyone smiling (and a little less sore!).

And that’s exactly what’s in store at the SCAPA One-Day Workshop THIS Friday — four different sessions designed to energize, inspire, and give you new tools to take back to your communities:
• The BURNOUT Program – Practical strategies to help you thrive
• The CAD Method for Sustainable Change – Goal-setting for success
• Dreams Come True – Making big dreams a reality
• Staff & Resident Challenges – Creative activity ideas for everyone

Were YOU at this Chair Chi event? Tag yourself or share a memory in the comments! And if you’ll be at the workshop this week, drop a 💙 below!
