Resident Productions!

We really wanted to share this video with all our followers. A few current residents of Jordan Ridge were featured in this video, a couple of which were directly involved with the creation of the video. When we come across resident productions, we like to share them. We are so proud of all our residents and the good things they are producing. Way to go, guys!

MOVING ON TO BIGGER AND BETTER!

We recently saw pictures of a few current and past residents that are or have moved on to bigger and better things! Specifically, MARRIAGE! We are so proud of all our residents. It brings us great joy as we witness our former, current, or future residents experience such great things that are taking place in their lives. We might lose one or two along the way, but this proves that amidst the hard times, there is much more "good" taking place at the same time. We must never lose sight of what is most important: faith, love, education, happiness, and success!  We always wish the best for all our residents as they spread their wings and venture out to "bigger and better" things.

Resident Talent!

We came across some resident talent by Zach Kerr on our facebook page and thought we would share it with you!  It is always great to see our residents going out and sharing their talents!

SUPER BOWL CONTEST!

We are introducing our FIRST EVER “Jordan Ridge Super Bowl BLOCK Contest”!!! We will come around later this week with a bowl of numbers from 1-100. Every apartment will draw two numbers. These two numbers will be your squares on the “Score Block” (see attached scoring block). Before the game, we will fill in the scoring blocks for each of the four quarters. Whichever apartment is in the winning square matching the score at the end of each quarter will win a Pizza Hut pizza party delivered right to your door! This means we will have four winners! Hopefully we’ll be knocking at your door. You must be HOME to win!

New TV in the clubhouse!

We just wanted to share with everyone that we have upgraded our TV in the clubhouse!  We just purchased a new Phillips 46" 1080p 240hz.  Come and enjoy it here in the clubhouse!

Winter Wonderland!

Winter is back here in Rexburg!  Nothing like waking up to -20 degrees in the morning, having a few inches of snow on your car, and wearing 6 layers of clothes to walk to class!  Winter is a GREAT time to be up here in Rexburg.  There are plenty of fun things to do (believe it or not!), it just might take a little bit more creativity than the summer months!

Here are some fun things to do here in the winter:

-Snowboarding/Skiing.  We have 2 GREAT resorts very close to Rexburg.  Kelly Canyon isn't too far away and Targhee is just right outside the Idaho border, about 45 minutes away from here.

-Sledding.  There are plenty of hills to sled down.  One of the best ones is located near the ice skating rink on the upper fields.

-Build a snowman

-Build an igloo

-Have a snowball fight.  BE AWARE--According to Rexburg law, you cannot engage in a snowball fight unless everyone is aware that snowballs are going to start flying!  So make sure that everyone is ok with getting hit by a snowball before you throw it at them!

-Ice skating on the upper fields.  The school has set up an ice skating rink for the winter time. 

-DATE!

There are plenty of things to do, and that is just a sample of some things you can do!  Like we mentioned, you just have to be a little more creative.  Don't let the cold weather bring you down or keep you inside!  There are plenty of things to do!

We hope everyone has a GREAT semester and let us know if there is anything we can do!

Our Team - Fall 2010

This fall, we went up to the neighboring farms behind us to take group photos of our current team! We found a fun rustic looking building amidst grain silos and a train that made for a great backdrop in some great photos. Thanks to Sarah Mickelson for coming and shooting a few shots for us. We really appreciate it!

Family Home Evening!

Family Home Evening takes place every Monday night around 7pm. Your family home evening groups are assigned through your students ward. We encourage every resident to participate in your family home evening groups. It is a great way to meet new friends, future spouses, and feel the spirit is a family-like setting. There is much to do in Southeastern Idaho in the Fall. If you need any suggestions for your family home evening activities, please come see us in the office. We would be more than happy to give you some suggestions for fun activities. Thank you apartment 701 for the family home evening group picture. It has only been 4 weeks and we can tell you have made life long friendships already! Keep up the good work!
