“I knew I wanted to help them out, because there’s a disconnect, and often, they aren’t really thought about,” Relich said to LEX18. “I don’t really like that, so I wanted to do something to help that community.”

Troop 73 and Relich made pieces of wood decorated with engaging challenges that test and sharpen the residents’ dexterity and cognitive skills.

“We want to keep not just their bodies active but their minds as well,” said Jessica Ball, life enrichment director at Dominion Senior Living. “Sometimes, they don’t know what to do, so these boards just laying around really engages them.”

The boards are designed to stimulate the minds of residents.
