National Volunteer Week was celebrated April 16-22, 2023. We are so grateful for all the FV volunteers who give of their time and talents to our staff and residents. Each one of them are truly priceless.

On Thursday, April 20, over 50 volunteers and staff members gathered for a volunteer appreciation luncheon in the Wisconsin Room at The Gardens. It was a wonderful event to honor our FV volunteers and thank them for their volunteer service during 2022.

During the event it was great pleasure to announce the 2023 Felician Award for Excellence in Volunteer Service at Felician Village, Pat Dondlinger. Congratulations Pat! Very well deserved. Click here to read part of Pat's nomination.

Thank you to all who submitted nominations, it was not an easy choice for our panel of judges. FV truly is blessed with outstanding, compassionate and caring volunteers.

Easter Activities

Our Felician Village residents had a "hopping" good time with activities during Easter week.

Happy Retirement!

Congratulations to Scotty Zeman on his retirement from Felician Village after nearly 22 years of service to the culinary department.

We wish Scotty a happy and healthy retirement!

The above normal temperatures during the week of April 10 gave Gardens residents the opportunity to enjoy their happy hour outside. Rob Peterson entertained residents while they enjoyed the drink special, Robin’s Nest.

During the same week, a bus trip took residents to Pine River Dairy. Everyone bought cheese, ice cream, butter, cheese whips, and cheese curds. It was a perfect day it was to enjoy an ice cream (or two!)
