Warm winter greetings from our clinical, accessible hoop house!

This event is free, and features two miles of illuminated trails for hiking, family-friendly activities, hot beverages, wellness goal setting and even live music! It’s a great opportunity to re-connect with nature and to set the new year off in a fun way.

Hot food from WoodFiredUp will also be available on-site for purchase.

The last two years have been great successes, with hundreds of folks from the community coming out to say hello and enjoy the illuminated forest paths. Invite your friends and family and celebrate winter with us!

Campus-Wide Thanksgiving Celebration!

This year Eisenhower Center celebrated Thanksgiving with a campus-wide dinner, sharing thanks with clients, family, and staff. Staff of each unit did their part preparing a special part of the meal with the help of our amazing clients – be it stuffing or a delicious pie. Each client also had the opportunity to share what they were thankful for by writing on part of a hand-made banner which was then hung up for all to see!

Eisenhower’s Annual Holiday Party

Just recently, Eisenhower clients, family, and friends all gathered together for Eisenhower’s annual holiday party. Bright smiles and sounds of laughter were shared under the wonderfully decorated ballroom. The evening was filled with great food, dancing, and quite a few special performances from clients and staff alike. Santa and Mrs. Claus even made an appearance with unique gifts for each of our clients!

From all of us here at Eisenhower Center, from Paradise in the Upper Peninsula,  down to our recently opened Jacksonville, Florida facility, we’d like to wish you all a happy holiday season and the best of luck in 2018!
