🌿 Gardening with Trevor Shaw – Thursday, September 4, 2025 🌿![]()
This past Thursday at the Carlton R. Rouh Veterans Center, we had another inspiring Gardening session with Trevor Shaw. Trevor always brings not only gardening knowledge but also valuable insights on nutrition and healthy living. His goal is simple: help us live longer, healthier lives through what we grow and eat.![]()
This week, Trevor shared fresh picks straight from his own garden—basil, Roma tomatoes, cabonette peppers, Anaheim peppers, and rosemary. Veterans sampled these with crackers, enjoying the taste of wholesome, homegrown goodness.![]()
🍅 Roma Tomatoes – Rich in vitamins A and C, great for the heart, and full of antioxidants.
🌿 Basil – Known to reduce stress, aid digestion, and boost the immune system.
🌶 Cabonette & Anaheim Peppers – Packed with vitamin C and fiber, they support metabolism and strengthen immunity.
🌱 Rosemary – Improves memory, boosts circulation, and adds flavor without the need for extra salt.![]()
Gardening with Trevor reminds us that healthy eating begins with what we grow. Every herb and vegetable offers not just flavor, but a path to better health and vitality. 🌱💚![]()

☕🇺🇸 This past Thursday, September 4th, 2025, we gathered once again for Coffee and Conversation at the Carlton R. Rouh Veterans Center.![]()
Every week, our center is filled with the voices, stories, and camaraderie of our veterans. Some come to share their experiences, others to listen, and many simply to enjoy the sense of belonging that comes with being among fellow veterans. Each cup of coffee poured comes with laughter, wisdom, and encouragement that remind us of the strength and unity within this community.![]()
We are grateful for all of the veterans who continue to join us week after week—your presence makes the Veterans Center a true home of friendship, support, and respect. 💙![]()

🇺🇸 Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸![]()
From all of us at the Spectracare Foundation and the Carlton R. Rouh Veterans Center, we wish our veterans, seniors, families, and friends a safe and peaceful Labor Day, September 1st, 2025.![]()
Labor Day, first celebrated in 1882 in New York City, became a federal holiday in 1894 as a way to honor the American labor movement and the contributions of workers to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our nation. Today, it reminds us to celebrate the dignity of hard work and the value of rest.![]()
For many, Labor Day is the unofficial end of summer—a time to gather with family and friends, enjoy parades, barbecues, or just take a well-deserved break. But it’s also a time to reflect on how the efforts of past and present workers have shaped the freedoms and opportunities we enjoy today.![]()
As we honor this day, let us also give thanks to our veterans and military families, whose dedication and sacrifice go hand in hand with the values of service, hard work, and community.![]()
Have a safe holiday, and may it be filled with peace, gratitude, and fellowship. ❤️💙![]()

🎨 Healing Arts at the Carlton R. Rouh Veterans Center 🎨![]()
This past Thursday, August 28th, 2025, after Coffee and Conversation, our veterans enjoyed a special Healing Arts session with the talented artist Justin Green. Together, they painted a bright and colorful watermelon on canvas, letting creativity flow while sharing laughter and stories along the way. 🍉🖌️![]()
The Healing Arts is more than just painting—it’s a way to relax, connect, and find peace through creativity. These sessions provide our veterans with a calming space to express themselves, reduce stress, and experience the joy of art.![]()
A big thank you to Justin Green for guiding our veterans and reminding us how powerful and uplifting art can be! 💙🇺🇸![]()
