TSIIONKWANONHSOTE WRAPS UP 30TH ANNIVERSARY WEEK CELEBRATION
On Saturday, August 17, 2024, the Tsiionkwanonhso:te Long-Term Care (LTC) facility wrapped up its 30th Anniversary Week Celebration. The residents of the LTC thoroughly enjoyed the interactive and engaging activities the hard-working and dedicated staff planned and implemented throughout the week.
The LTC’s anniversary week included musical performances by various local bands and artists, a week-long Mohawk auction, a day of cultural celebrations, a visit by the Bee Meadows Petting Zoo (where they were joined by residents of the Iakhihsohtha Lodge), and capped the week off with an outdoor field day which featured a dunk tank, carnival games, and food sales.
Through the Mohawk Auction, donations, and food sales, the LTC was able to meet, and exceed, their fundraising goal for the Tsiionkwanonhso:te resident’s annual Christmas Activity fund. All funds generated goes to the residents to ensure they receive gifts on Christmas morning and are treated to a holiday dinner with all the fixings. Additional funds generated through the celebration weeks fundraising efforts will go towards entertainment for the residents throughout Christmas Day.
Nia:wen/thank you to all the staff, volunteers, and community members who made the 30th Anniversary Week celebration a memorable occasion. Your continued support is truly appreciated.
