Announcements
Halloween Party (18-22-year-olds only): Today; 3 p.m.-6 p.m.; in the newly-remodeled resilience room.
We will have food provided by Jersey Mikes and watch a scary movie! If you have any suggestions for the movie or any questions please see Erin.
Adult Halloween Party: Today, 3 p.m., in the CFH Dining Room. Appetizers, games, and fun. Come as your favorite superhero or villain.
Something To Sink Your Teeth Into (or to sink its teeth into you): The poster didn't specify whether the version of "Nosferatu" shown today at 2 p.m. in the Community Room will be the original 1922 silent German version (that creature of the night was downright creepy, but then isn't that the way a vampire is supposed to be. If they all looked like David Boreanz (Angel), Brad Pitt or Kirsten Dunst people would be wanting to get their necks bitten) or the 1979 low-budget German remake directed by Werner Herzog.
The 1922 silent movie, directed by F.W. Murnau and starring Max Schreck, borrowed its plot from Bram Stoker's "Dracula" but since the studio didn't own the rights the vampire's name was changed to Nosferatu and the count's name was changed from Dracula to Orlok.
Art: Try out your creativity, Sundays, any time from 2-4:30 p.m. in the Arts and Crafts Room.
Qi-Gong: Qi-Gong will be in recess from October 20-November 3. It will resume its regular schedule November 10.

Meditation: Wednesdays, 7:45 a.m., in the STAR classroom. Open to staff and guests.
