"Mr. Kenneth Baker
has been preparing
meals for over 36
years."

Women's Treatment Program (WTP) by Linda Vujich-Nelloms

The WTP has undertaken an activity to generate funds for the women to have outings that include lunch, movies, pizza nights and a trip to King's Island.  During the first weekend of every month we have a yard sale and bale sale in the Administration building multipurpose room.

We are requesting everyone to participate in the sale by purchasing goods and items.  Also anyone wishing to donate agently worn clothing, small electrical/electronic items and small household items can do so by contacting extension 240.  Also we are in need of plastic grocery and newspaper bags and wire hangers.
