Bikinis and Wet T-Shirt Contests are Favorite Activities at Bradley Creek Health Center
Carolina Bay Senior Living Community

August 8, 2024

Theirs was the generation that ‘invented’ the scandalous fashion statement in the mid 1940s, so it seemed ‘fitting’ for them to celebrate the summer garment.

Last week, residents of Bradley Creek Health Center at Carolina Bay held a ‘bikini’ contest. Of sorts. Cardboard sorts. The fashionistas created beautiful ‘bikinis’ on cardboard placards and then ‘modeled’ them. (The one gentleman in attendance made a ‘Speedo and six-pack abs.’)

Bradley Creek Health Center provides assisted living, memory support, rehabilitation and skilled nursing care. It is a part of Carolina Bay at Autumn Hall, a full-service luxury rental senior living community located in Wilmington, North Carolina.

This ‘shocking’ bikini behavior at Bradley Creek Health Center, was preceded several weeks ago by a wet t-shirt contest. The residents’ take on the activity was hanging t-shirts on clotheslines and shooting water pistols at them, competing for the person who could get their target soaked the fastest.

“The residents have really enjoyed these activities,” said Meredith Mercer, Activities Director for Bradley Creek Health Center. “We had them listed on the calendar well ahead of time, so they had plenty of opportunity to talk and laugh about it in advance. We’ll definitely be doing these again!”
