Sheyenne Crossings Hosts Grammys and Grampys

WEST FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) – Sheyenne Crossings in West Fargo celebrated this awards season by honoring their own Grammys and Grampys.

The third annual event honored residents from throughout the senior living facility.

The honorees had their hair and makeup done by volunteers from FMCT, before walking down the red carpet with members of the West Fargo Fire Department, receiving a statuette and having their picture taken.

The emcees shared stories from the residents’ lives, from skydiving on a dare, to touring Washington D.C. with a CIA agent.

Organizers say the event helps encourage a sense of community among the residents.

“We have such a different variety of people here,” Sheyenne Crossings Director of Life Enrichment Becky Butenhoff said. “It’s great to get everyone together into one building, because we have different areas of the building, and this is one big event that we all get together.”

After being presented with their awards, residents enjoyed cupcakes and champagne.
