Finally, Spring Arrives At Whitetail Run

Whitetail Run Onsite Manager Judith Strasser reports seeing the first signs of spring: residents lingering by the mail boxes in conversation, enjoying the warm temperatures and sunshine. After the long winter we all enjoy having our early evenings filled with daylight and replacing our heavy winter coats for light jackets. 


The resident's who call Whitetail Run home epitomize today's senior; they are active and interested in life. Rocking chairs on our resident's front porch are more likely a place to put their walking shoes than a place to sit and watch the world pass by.


The arrival of the yard crew is always a welcome sight for our residents, everyone seems to enjoy watching the workers remove the dead grass and leaves, making way for spring's green growth.


The warmer weather heralds another rite of spring: our resident's getting out their bikes and enjoying daily walks. For one resident, the absence of snow revealed what seems to be more than the usual amount of litter along Okray Drive. He said he can't understand why people feel it necessary to litter. He felt compelled to take a garbage bag and pick up the litter. Several trips for additional bags resulted in his having to borrow the utility cart to bring the filled bags back. If there is an organization looking for a community project, they might want to consider picking up the litter strewn along Okray Drive. I know our residents would appreciate it.
A pair of crows have taken over one of the pine trees near the club house and are busy with nesting duties. An owl that came too close to the pine tree causing the crows to raise quite a ruckus.


Residents have noticed several pairs of Bluebirds have returned and are calling our community home. Our residents feel a connection with nature and many of them have bird feeders up year round.  When one of our residents noticed a pair of Mallard Ducks waddling through her yard, she placed cracked corn and a trough of fresh water, much to the delight of the ducks. She received some good natured teasing that before long she won't be feeding just two ducks but their entire family. "Wait until those ducks start bringing their babies!" I think no one is going to mind and will look forward to the sight of baby ducks outside their window.


Mother's Day is always a special time at Whitetail Run. This year we had so many visitors parking spots were at a premium including spots near the club house! Our residents look forward to the arrival of family; some of the residents are treated to brunch and others plan a meal at home. Mother's Day flowers and hanging baskets are favorite gifts and are among the first bright spots of color to appear around the community. 


With spring here to stay, we look forward to enjoying more of our favorite outside hobbies.

Do I Smell Cookies?



Yes .... that would be from booth #209 at the 2011 Portage County Business Council Expo, at the Holiday Inn & Convention Center, Stevens Point, WI.


The Business Expo is the unveiling of the Central Wisconsin Senior Living booth and judging by the number of people who have stopped to visit, we think the booth is a hit


The Microsoft tags are generating a lot of buzz. The tags have been added to all of our promotional literature, making it a snap for anyone with a smartphone and reader app to access information on all of our properties: North Haven, Whitetail Run and Pioneer Place.
