Cedar Crest Horseshoe Tournament is all about fun and community

On September 21, residents and staff at Cedar Crest, an Erickson Living retirement community in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, enjoyed a little friendly competition at its annual horseshoe competition. This year, the residents emerged victorious in the group contest. First place honors went to residents Ron Paliaga and Bruno Tomaino.

“We had a great time,” said Grounds Supervisor Ted Theissen. “It is an opportunity for residents and staff to spend time together, have fun, and get some exercise.”

“Recreational activities are a wonderful source of camaraderie,” said Resident Life Manager Erica Zayat. “These types of community events create a family atmosphere on campus.”

The horseshoe pits, located outside the Woodland Commons Clubhouse, are enjoyed by residents, family members, friends, and staff throughout the year. The spot is beautifully landscaped and includes benches for spectators.

Cedar Crest is one of 19 continuing care retirement communities managed by Erickson Living. The scenic 130-acre campus is located in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, and is home to over 2,000 residents. The community offers abundant amenities, hundreds of clubs and activities, on-site restaurants, a state-of-the-art medical center, an all-season pool and a fitness center.
