Haircuts and Manicures
Getting a new haircut—or even just a little touch-up or trim—helps our members look and feel good, and gives them a chance to relax and indulge in a little salon-style pampering. Our Beauty Professionals visit us twice a month to offer all of our members their time at our in-house “salon.”
Classes
At our Center, we offer classes year-round in arts and crafts, music, English and computer use. We also invite instructors to come and teach short-term classes in subjects of interest to our members, such as sewing.

Day Trips
Our members enjoy going on a day trip together at least twice a month. When the weather is warm, we love to have barbecues and picnics and visits to Botanical Garden. At cooler times we organize trips to restaurants and casinos, museums and aquariums.
Entertainment
Melody has professional musicians on staff, who entertain our members on daily bases with great music and singing, local news and jokes.
We invite special guests like musicians, magicians, and guest speakers to join us each month. Melody ADC members enjoy providing entertainment for each other, like Poem reading and singing, as well.
Socialization
Enjoying the company of others is one of the main benefits of becoming a Melody client. We offer group activities throughout the day, and also provide a comfortable environment where our members can make new friends and spend free time together, whether it’s playing a board game or just chatting over a cup of tea. Melody’s Program Director is responsible for planning group activities that respond to the participant’s interests, capabilities, and needs.
