🎤✨ Karaoke Night at Sheehan Landing = Pure Joy! ✨🎤
Sheehan Landing came alive with music, laughter, and some seriously unforgettable performances! From classic ballads to dance-worthy hits, our community took the mic and owned it. 🎶
We sang, we cheered, we maybe laughed a little too hard — and every moment reminded us why Sheehan Landing is more than just a place to live… it's a place to belong. ❤️
Huge thanks to everyone who came out, sang their hearts out, and made the night one to remember!

🏠 What’s in a Home in a Basket?
It's the little things that turn housing into home — dishes, towels, sheets, a broom, even a “Welcome Home” card.
🧺 You can help someone starting fresh by donating a Home in a Basket — filled with new, essential items for the kitchen, bed, and bath.
💛 Every kit makes a difference.
