Prairie Crossing Name Chosen for New
Pine Haven
Residential Center Apartment Complex
Sheboygan Falls, WI --
Prairie Crossing, a Pine Haven Community, is the new name selected for the
assisted living apartment complex currently under construction by Pine
Haven. The name was submitted by former board member, Marilyn Buteyn, along
with over 100 suggestions from residents, employees, and members of the
eighteen churches sponsoring Pine Haven.
“Prairie Crossing has a nostalgic
air about it and embraces the natural setting we will maintain with the new
development,” says Jeff Jenkins, Administrator of Pine Haven. “There were
so many great suggestions, but everyone gravitated to this one as best
representing a comfortable home. We wanted to communicate association with
Pine Haven since the community recognizes our Christian heritage, however,
we want to emphasize that Prairie Crossing is an apartment development for
assisted, active living; and not a nursing home.”
To recognize the selection of the
name recommended by Buteyn, there will be a commemorative plaque located
next to a tree planted in her honor on the grounds at Prairie Crossing.
Construction is progressing on
schedule for the apartment complex with the majority of the concrete work
complete, the overall structure well underway, and the pond dug. Target is
for the entire complex to be enclosed by the end of November.
Prairie Crossing, a 40-unit assisted
living apartment complex in a senior community, is targeted to open in mid
2007. Four apartment sizes ranging from 542 to 960 square feet will be
available and each include a full kitchen and European design shower in the
bathroom. Meal plans and customized services will be offered. For more
information call 467-2401, ext. 101.
