we judge according to neatness and creativity, its a great opportunity to have nice looking and clean balconies at your property!     Picture Courtesy of quinn.anya

Another oldie but goodie. Residents love it and kids do too. Fun to change it up with different things in the jars for the seasons. We have had candy, holiday lights, toys, and so many other things too.

My residents LOVE this especially after the 1st of the year. We purchased the whole CD set and put it on the big screen and get dancing. We provide lots of water and fresh towels. Sometimes we add fruit trays or smoothies to the mix for fun.

Used a Easter usually but can be brought out at picnic socials too.

Utilize your club house by hosting a speed dating night. Gather some tables and chairs, have your local pizza place cater the event, and invite your residents and their friends to come for a night of speed dating. This is not only a great resident function, but it can also attract some potential residents from outside of the community, all while showcasing your clubhouse.   Picture courtesy of Steve Bowbrick
