We’ve enjoyed some of our “nice”, Wisconsin, typical 4 seasons in one
week, type weather we’ve been having! Our committees have been
working this month, continuing to make plans for new and upcoming
things! We continue to enjoy the company of family and friends visiting
in rooms, praying everyone stays safe and healthy! And if you haven’t
heard, we have more famous people who live here now, as we filmed
our Waunakee Manor commercial for TV! Many community members
and staff came together for the filming of the commercial with Fox 47
TV. Thank you to all who participated and made this so special!

        To our WONDERFUL Nurses here at Waunakee Manor,
   Katie, Selena, Sam, Kathy, Fred, Dian, Kim, Kate, Sherry, Spencer,
 Amber, Joni, Brooke, Lynn, Sulyman, Aimee, Christine, Julie, Carol, Jon,

 Thank you for your dedication, patience, teamwork and compassion. Despite the challenges
 over the past year, you continued to provide a safe, comfortable, happy place to be for our
          community members. We are forever grateful. Thank You For All You Do!!
