Thank you Sprenger Health Care Towne Center!
At our Rotary on the Road meeting we learned about the Towne Center Community Campus – Avenue Assisted Living; Commons Independent Living and the new Parkway Memory Care Assisted Living. As Anne Naumann explained, Sprenger keeps safety and continuity of care in mind providing these multiple levels of care. Parkway was developed to optimize quality of life and encourage residents to maintain a healthy level of activity. As we toured we saw residents enjoying the natural light in the atrium, wide hallways and spacious accommodations. Special thanks to Chef Jim Smith for his delicious made-to-order omelette (and more) breakfast.
Sprenger Health Care Towne Center has been a partner with North Coast Rotary. They provide our weekly meeting space and have donated desserts for our Pizza Bake-Off fundraisers. Sprenger Towne Center hosts our premiere fundraiser – Sip & Support Wine Tasting in February providing gourmet appetizers and desserts to accompany the wine selections.
Thank you Sprenger Health Care for your support!

Rotary on the Road at Sprenger Stadium
Tom Kramig, Lake Erie Crushers owner, generously hosted Rotarians at one of the loges at Sprenger Stadium for one of the Club’s weekly meetings.
Although the baseball season is over, Rotarians were able to see firsthand how the Stadium can be used for community endeavors. Thank you Tom Kramig!
