An hour they talk about at dinner.
The Quiz Show read aloud and played with hands up, the Survey Showdown one player at a time, a sing-along with the words on your screen, or a music hour from the decades your residents danced to. Weekday mornings and afternoons, in your activity room, at one flat daytime rate. SouthCoast, South Shore and Cape Cod.
Four ways to fill the afternoon.
The Quiz Show
Five categories from their decades: the songs, the shows, the hometowns. The host reads every clue twice, hands go up, tables play as teams, and the board is on your screen. No buzzers unless the room wants them.
For assisted living, independent living and senior centers. Memory care plays it in shorter rounds.
How it playsThe Survey Showdown
Two teams, one player at a time, the top answers hidden on the board. The television format the room already knows, with no clock to speak of.
How it playsThe Sing-Along
The words on your screen in big type, a wireless mic that comes to the seat, group songs before any solo, and a pass for anyone who would rather listen. Sinatra to the Beatles.
How it runsThe Music Hour
A DJ set from the years the room lived through, requests welcome, at a volume that leaves conversation possible. Room to dance, and no pressure to.
Seated, read aloud, big type.
- Seated play. Tables as teams, residents where they already are.
- Read aloud, twice. Every question and every answer on a microphone.
- Big type, high contrast. The board on your TV, printed questions for anyone who reads better than they hear.
- Our sound. A speaker that carries the room without pain. The TV's own speaker never does.
- Staff at the table. An aide relaying an answer counts.
- Memory care. Shorter rounds, familiar music, nothing to lose.
In, up, and out.
Before the room fills
The board on your TV and the speaker up, ahead of the residents.
The opener
A group song or an easy first category, so the room learns the rules by playing.
The program
The game or the music, with a break in the middle.
The close
A spin of the prize wheel, a last song, and the room back the way we found it.
Three numbers, weekdays.
The Daytime Rate
One weekday daytime program: the game show, the sing-along, or the music hour. One host, the sound, the screen feed, setup and pack-up.
The Route Rate
When we are already booked in your town that weekday, a second program the same day is $150. Ask which days we are nearby.
The Monthly Series
Per visit, the same day every month for the year, held on your calendar so the residents know it is coming.
The Bigger Day
The enclosed photo booth for a family day, or the holiday party in the daytime.
Anyone with a calendar to fill.
Assisted living, independent living, memory care
The Quiz Show and the sing-along as a monthly slot; the music hour for a social; the photo booth for family day.
Activities and life-enrichment directorsSkilled nursing and rehab
Seated play in the dining room, questions read twice, staff at the tables.
Recreation and activities staffSenior centers and Councils on Aging
A weekday program the whole town can come to, trivia or a sing-along, at the daytime rate. Local Cultural Council grants fund programs like this; applications close October 15.
COA directors and program coordinatorsAdult day health and 55+ communities
A morning program for a day center; a clubhouse social for a 55+ community.
Program directors and social committeesThe honest answers.
What does the room need?
A TV we can plug into, an outlet, and the residents where they already sit. We bring the rest.
Is it right for memory care?
Yes, with shorter rounds, music first, questions the room can answer, and staff at the table. Your team decides who joins.
Can we book the same day every month?
Yes. The Monthly Series holds your slot for the year at the same rate.
How do we pay?
An invoice after the visit. Your accounts payable can pay it the way it pays everyone else.
Pick a weekday. We'll hold it.
Tell us the room and the residents; we'll tell you which program fits.
