The Gregory Kistler Center

Last week, our nurse, Kodie, had a little bit of a mishap and shattered glass all over her office. Justin, a person served, was at the Center when it happened and when he saw that she needed help he jumped right in! Justin turned a slightly chaotic situation into one filled with gratitude and kindness all because he chose to help.

Thank you, Justin, for being so kind and helpful! We are grateful for you!

We all have unique talents. Some of us are athletic. Some are super smart. Others are incredibly creative. So, we asked our staff, “if you could be an Olympic athlete for anything, what would it be?”

Now, we want to hear from YOU! If you could be in the Olympics for anything, what would it be? Share your answers with us in the comments!
