In a recent line of events, a special group of cheerleaders participated in a football match. The match between Eden Prairie versus Edina on Friday witnessed something special. About 10 residents from The Waters Senior Living Community came to support the match. However, this gesture was very special and was welcomed with open arms.

The high schoolers had visited their home in August, and the senior citizens wanted to return the favor. For this match, they made the residents to sit right near the end zone wearing special bleachers.

First football outing after 2019

The Water Senior Living Community has a tradition of watching football matches. They always bring their residents to watch football matches. This tradition got hampered because of the Covid restrictions. Since there were restrictions from 2019 and also health conditions, this was the first time the members went for a match. Moreover, the environment around the stadium was wonderful. The students cheered for their respective teams. However, the senior citizens were also not far behind.

“These are the best seats I’ve ever had,” said Arun Sanade, one of the residents at The Waters.
