2 Express Page 2 Serving Since 1928 by Steve Guttormson, Marketing & Development Director The year was The silent film, Wings, was voted best picture in the first-ever Academy Awards. Johnny Weissmuller, who later played Tarzan in the movies, won two gold medals for swimming at the Summer Olympics in Amsterdam. Maya Angelo, Rosemary Clooney, Shirley Temple, Fats Domino and Jimmy Dean were babies. In Fergus Falls, a high school senior named Julius Quello was playing basketball for the Otters, according to a Daily Journal story by Tom Hintgen a few years back. They had a great team. Their only losses were to their rivals in Moorhead. Other team members included Chuck Severn, Parmar Carlson, James Grina, Maynard Lee, Vincent Gates, Robert Harris and Willis Alexander. The Ford Model A was the most popular American car in October 7 was an important day in Fergus Falls that year. The very first residents moved into what was then called Pioneer Memorial Home that day. Eleven people made their home in the just-completed building that fall. It was the first organization of its kind in Otter Tail County. Two years earlier, a small group of citizens had met in the basement of Bethlehem Lutheran Church to study its feasibility. They later elected a board of directors that included A.G. Anderson, president; the Reverend H.H. Hagen, vice president; M.T. Moen, secretary; P.M. Ree, treasurer; the Reverend E. Pederson, the Reverend H.M. Thoreson, the Reverend A. J. Quello, the Reverend S.C. Simonson, and M.H. Stang. Pastor Thoreson collected applications from prospective residents before the movein date. Quite a number have applied for admission but do not wish to move during the winter. Temporary accommodations can be given to quite a number in the winter, wrote the Fergus Falls Daily Journal on December 8, Pioneer Memorial Home was dedicated the afternoon of July 20, Bethlehem, First and Zion Lutheran Churches held special services that morning. Augustana and Hope Lutheran Churches joined as sponsoring congregations years later. Hilda Slind was the first to run the operation. She initiated interest in starting a Ladies Hilda Slind Aide society to benefit Pioneer. The Sunshine Society held its first organizational meeting on June 26, Members were to pay monthly dues of 15 cents and prepare at least one item to be sold at the fall sale. Lillian Saure was the first licensed administrator, serving in that capacity from 1965 to During that time, Pioneer was licensed for 81 beds, including 47 nursing care and 34 boarding care residents. Other leaders came after, including Carmon Jackson and John Richards. Today, we are pleased to have Nathan Johnson at the helm as PioneerCare CEO/Administrator.

3 Express Page 3 A Christ-Like Way by Harry Olson, Chaplain Our PioneerCare Mission Statement directs every staff person to care for those we serve in a Christ like way. Sound heavy? Definitely. You may ask what in the world does this look like? For us it is living a relationship that establishes accountability and builds trust with each person and family under our umbrella of care. While this may sound a large obligation to manage, it is from a biblical perspective a great privilege. The scriptures continually call the whole church into loving action caring for the most vulnerable persons and families in our communities and world. This biblical theme of caring for others with the greatest needs is one of the most repeated mandates recorded in the bible. The importance of serving the most vulnerable in our communities cannot be overstated. PioneerCare, as an extension of the Church, is dedicated to this extremely important mission and has been doing it for eighty five years. Knowing the significance of this calling to serve and doing so is a privilege that leads us to Christ living among us. Jesus says that when you do it to the least of these you do it to me. Leading Sunday or midweek worship, sitting with a resident who is ill or visiting with another who grieves living alone helps me and all our staff know the face of Christ with us. These real time experiences are very humbling and at the same time gratifying. It makes what we do at PioneerCare very meaningful and a humble privilege of service. Malik Twedt (standing), Tanner Johnson (left) and Riley Johnson (right). Summer Help PioneerCare s maintenance staff grew in numbers during the recent summer months, thanks to a youth employment program through the Minnesota Workforce Center. Malik Twedt, Tanner Johnson and Riley Johnson worked on a variety of maintenance projects and housekeeping tasks under the supervision of Brad Bushinger, PioneerCare s director of environmental services. One such project involved landscaping improvements at the south entrance to PioneerCare Suites on Sheridan Avenue. We want to expose them to different types of work while they re with us, so they get a well-rounded experience, Brad says. PioneerCare has had a relationship with the Rural Minnesota CEP Program since Chad Nelson, youth director for the program, routinely stops by to see how participants are doing. When asked what they enjoyed most about working at Pioneer for the summer, they agreed that working with the people was their favorite thing. What was their least favorite? Picking weeds!

Upcoming Care Center Events By Liane Barton Well, here we go again with another fall season that will surely set off a busy round of events. On Monday, Sept. 30 the Fergus Falls High School Homecoming Royalty stopped by to greet our care center residents and parade around in their finest. We all love to see the beautiful dresses and suits these young people wear to Homecoming. There are usually some interesting comments about the dresses-how short, low cut, etc. It makes for some good conversation. Halloween is always a busy day getting the court yard decorated. This year s theme is Who gives a Hoot with an owl décor. The trick-or-treaters are welcome from 6:00 to 7:00 pm. In the past, many families have donated candy. If you would like to donate candy to this event, you can leave your donation at the desk in the front lobby. Many of our residents feel they need to donate something and it s good when we can say it s already been donated. Thanksgiving is approaching fast. Again we ask, PLEASE call to make reservations if you plan to have dinner with your loved one. It makes the day so much more pleasant when we have enough for everyone and seating is set up in advance. You can call and leave your name and number of guests with the receptionist-phone number is , by the 18th of November. Please call for more information. I know it seems early, but just to let everyone know: we will be having the annual Live Nativity on December 24 at 10:45 am followed in the afternoon by a live Christmas Concert performed by Pianist Michael Nelson from Minneapolis. The concert will begin at 2:00 pm. You are all invited to both these special events that make Christmas a bit more special at PioneerCare. That s about it for upcoming events at PioneerCare Center. Enjoy your fall and drive safely as the weather begins to change!

More details are online at or by calling Sara at Auxiliary News by Norma Worden, Auxiliary Vice President We have had a busy fall in the fun and fund raising part of our Auxiliary s job.

New are scarves that are fashionable as well as pretty. These items are available during daytime operating hours at the care center. As always, you are invited to help with any and all events including Desk Duty in the Lobby. Speaking from experience, it is an enjoyable four hours.

6 Express Page 6 News from Pioneer Pointe and Care Suites by Paulette Hoebelheinrich, Housing Manager Autumn: Ah breaths of fresh crisp air in the mornings that sometimes last all day long. Sweatshirts and light jackets feel so good. Harvest is nearing completion and lands are being laid to rest for the winter. Tenants and staff at Pioneer Pointe and Care Suites are planning fun filled events during the months of October and November. Oktoberfest noon menus offer German cuisine that will be enjoyed on Thursdays during the month starting October 10. Trick or Treaters are invited to both Pioneer Pointe and the Care Suites from 5:30 until 6:30 p.m. on Halloween evening. Tenants will be handing out TREATS to ward off any TRICKS. Thanksgiving on November 28 will bring many tenants and their families together. A number of tenants are invited out for the day, while others entertain family and join together for a wonderful noon meal prepared by our chefs. Whatever the case may be, we wish all a Blessed Thanksgiving with friends and family. Pioneer Cottages Update A team from Pioneer Cottage in Breckenridge recently participated in the annual Walk to End Alzheimers in Fargo. The Footprints Through Life team, organized by Katie Burkman, raised over $635 in funds. I appreciate all the support from Pioneer and our friends and family throughout the years for added encouragement and support. This is a great cause and I hope to continue the the effort to end Alzheimer s or assist in donations for advancements with this devastating disease. If you would like to learn more about Pioneer Cottages, please contact Heather Nelson in Fergus Falls at or Barb Mohs in Breckenridge at The Footprints Through Life Alzheimer s team included Jenna Seidel, Barb Mohs, Becky Coyle, John Coyle, Courtney Solvie, Katie Burkman, Tara Krogh.
