Once again, the Residents and Staff of Fredonia Place played host to the children of the Developmental Head Start Program.
A bus loaded with are children made their annual trek to visit with Residents and Staff alike and to celebrate the pending holidays with cheer.
The kids enjoyed afternoon filled with Christmas songs, Holiday treats, stories, interaction with our Residents and finally, a trip to the Annual Mitten Tree, where children could pick out a pair of mittens and a scarf to stay warm!
Thank you to the numerous Family members, Residents and Staff that donated to the tree. The children and their families thank you too!

A tip of the hat once again to our Staff, Residents and Families for the many donations that were dropped off for our mass donation to the Salvation Army! This year we were able to fill our entire bus with donations.
Two families with specific needs were chosen by the Army to receive things like furniture, clothing and Christmas gifts for children in need.
Plus additional toys, clothes, food, including four turkeys were also taken to the Central Avenue location for distribution.
Special recognition goes out to Activities Director Shannon Matteson & her Assistant, Jessica (pictured here) for taking additional gifts, clothing and foods directly to the streets...literally finding people and families in the streets of the city and giving them help during the holidays.

Fredonia Place Residents and many of their family members were treated to our Annual New Year's Eve Dinner Celebration by our entire Culinary Team headed by Gina Berringer.
Prime Rib was carved by Chef Nick George along with several additional side dishes, wine, beverages and desserts.
On holiday weekend, we will usually serve our special meals on a Friday so that family can spend time off campus with Residents if they's like. On special holidays like New Year's Eve, our event is held during lunch time for the same reasons.
Hats off (Chef hats please) to the entire team for another job well done!
