Casino Night at Wiggins Place

On April 10th Wiggins Place hosted our Annual Casino Night.  It was a real blast with tenants coming down and trying their luck at Casino table games and slot machines.  This year Wiggins Place was fortunate enough to have this year's Casino Night sponsored by the Teen Philanthropy Board.    Thank you to everyone on the Board for a truly wonderful night.

Wiggins Place Acheives Perfect Results!

On March 1st
Wiggins Place
received a visit from the Ohio Department of Health at which time the representative conducted an annual survey of our building.  Some of the areas that underwent inspection include: building cleanliness, grounds and operations, tenant health records, dining and food service and many other areas of importance.  I am so proud to report that
Wiggins Place
achieved a deficiency free survey. 

Congratulations to the
Wiggins Place

Wiggins Place Artist Appreciation Exhibit

Here at Wiggins Place we have so many talented and gifted people who live here.  It is so inspiring to hear their wonderful stories and see their beautiful works of art.  On Sunday, February 27th Tracy Derschau, Director of Life Enrichment, held an exhibit to showcase these artists so all of Wiggins Place could see the fruits of such sweet, creative labor.  Tenants brought down artwork of all kinds to share: needlepoint, painting, silkscreening, etc.  Now we can share some of it with you.  Enjoy!

What would YOU do for a Klondike Bar

 

The Life Enrichment Deparment at Wiggins Place put out a challenge to all of our tenants:  What would you do for a Klondike Bar?  It was no surprise that our tenants rose to the challenge and earned a delicious treat during our TGIF social.

So now the question begs: What would YOU do for a Klondike Bar??
