Of 45 Communities, Linda Fritsche Is No. 1!Van Mall had a chance last month to celebrate Linda Fritsche!

Linda had the most activity minutes out of 45 Leisure Care Communities during our February Fitness Frenzy. Can you see how big our GM Bill Hess’ smile is? Our Community is ecstatic to be able to boast that we have such incredibly active residents.

We are so proud of Linda for staying active and keeping track of all those minutes.

We look forward to when we can celebrate this fantastic honor together.

Van Mall’s Coloring the Lobby Coloring ContestWe had a lot of fun last month with some of our contests. One of our favorite contests took voting to social media. Our Van Mall’s Coloring the Lobby Coloring Contest only had five contestants. Still, we made it an entertaining contest by posting their coloring sheets on Facebook and letting the Van Mall Facebook followers vote by liking their favorite coloring sheet. Richard Szyndrowski took first place with the most likes, but everyone who participated enjoys an ice cream treat as a prize. We want to thank Lora, Richard, Joanna, Rosella and Agnes for participating.
