Open House Planned for U P Home Anniversary Event

The UP Home in Washington marks its years with an open house on October 24 from 2 to 4 30 pm inviting the public. The facility began in 1947 after the Illinois synod looked for a retirement home site and expanded to serve about 140 elderly by 1971. Superintendent Dick Colby notes the home is non denominational, with cottages expanding living space and a growing community of residents, Sages, and staff, while maintaining a policy to admit only those who can care for themselves and health permits.
