At Cedar Lodge, we believe in building connections, caring deeply for our residents, and creating lasting memories. ❤️
That’s why we launched our very own Wish Program — a way to connect with our residents, learn about their hopes and dreams, and help make those special wishes come true.
We are incredibly proud to grant our very first wish! While this may be our first, we know it certainly won’t be our last. ✨
Our first wish was simple, yet incredibly meaningful. Maurette wished for the opportunity to do something she enjoyed many years ago — going on paddle boat tours. She loved exploring the cities by paddle boat and had already experienced many of the tours in the area.
So, we expanded our search and found one she had never experienced, in a place that holds special memories for her: Winona. It has been many years since Maurette last visited, making this adventure even more meaningful.
At the end of the month, Maurette and two friends will head to Winona for a paddle boat tour, followed by dinner and an evening of making new memories together. 🛶❤️
It may seem like a simple wish, but to Maurette, it means so much.
And that is exactly why we created this program — to give our residents the opportunity to experience something they once loved, revisit special places, and make new memories along the way.
We can’t wait to see the smile on Maurette’s face and share in this special day with her. Here’s to the first wish of many! 💕✨
