Being outside of the eclipse’s path of totality didn’t stop the fun-loving seniors at The Heritage of Green Hills in Cumru Township, Berks County, from celebrating the April 8 total solar eclipse in style.

To get ready, protective glasses were distributed to residents and team members alike.  Interested observers were invited to participate in a session of pre-eclipse gentle yoga to stretch their bodies before looking up to the heavens.

After everyone watched the awe-inspiring celestial event, Sun Chips and Moon Pies were served.
