“I moved to Seeland Park on March 23rd of this year,” said Sherrie Witte. “I really love it here! I’ve met so many great people and my neighbors have already become like family. The staff at Seeland Park have been extremely helpful and have worked closely with me to personalize my duplex. I invite you to tour my home on June 14 and see the transformations we have accomplished. Currently, I’m focusing on my flower beds, which is a favorite activity of mine.”

Visitors are also invited to stop by the Social Center, located on the northwest side of St. Francis Manor, to enjoy refreshments.
