Over the last three years, North Star Manor made it our mission to update our transportation resources so we could provide safe, accessible travel for our residents. In just a few short years, we’ve accomplished almost everything we set out to do! Within the last year alone, we welcomed a new bus and a handicap-accessible van. Most recently, we added another "vehicle" to our fleet—which you’ve most likely seen out and about around town! We are thrilled to share that, thanks to countless donations and our passionate staff, we finally have our very own golf cart. Not only has this cart made getting to local events easier, but it has also made so many more outings possible—especially for our residents who use wheelchairs. Why is that? Because our golf cart is fully handicap-accessible, complete with a ramp and dedicated wheelchair space!
With every day that passes, our facility continues to experience incredible growth. Big ideas have turned into reality, and that is entirely thanks to our wonderful community and supporters. As this transportation chapter comes to a successful close, an exciting new one begins. Now that our transportation resources are right where they need to be, we are ready to turn our focus to our next big dream: updating our outdoor patio!
None of this would be possible without the remarkable people who surround us. We want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who has volunteered, donated, or simply stopped by to visit and share a smile to help make this vision a reality. We are constantly blown away by the overwhelming generosity and heart of our community—so thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
