The Windsor of Palm Coast and Trilogy Home Healthcare partnered together to host a Kindness Rocks event on May 25 at The Windsor. About a dozen locals gathered to write happy messages on small rocks then place the personalized pebbles in the community to spread positivity and inspire others to do the same.
"We just like to be positive and spread good will, so we like to host these kinds of events," said Windsor Sales Assistant Kristen Thomas.
Trilogy Home Healthcare Coordinator Jessyca Hogan loves the Kindness Rocks national movement and wanted to bring it to Palm Coast. Her 5-year-old grandson, Maverick Melhorn, also enjoys painting these rocks and hiding them with her. Together, they placed a rock with a doughnut drawn on it at a local Publix. Hogan said Melhorn often points out good hiding places for rocks during outings together.
