DEAR FAMILY MEMBERS – THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

I want to express my sincere thanks to those family members that were able to support our Holstein Picnic and Tim Horton’s trips. Family support is the key to making our programs most meaningful. Because of your support the Holstein trip was enjoyed by twice the amount of residents as years past. On behalf of the resident and staff of SVNC we thank you for sharing treasured memories with us.
