Communication

As always, we take pride in our customer service and continue to improve our communications and our registration process. Our communication plan includes updates to our website to make navigation easier, we have a weekly article in the Owatonna People’s Press in every weekend edition, while SeniorPlace articles appear weekly on Wednesdays. Be sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram and Twitter as well!

Reserve a Pavilion

It’s never too soon to reserve a pavilion for your special event! Call the office and we’ll be glad to find the perfect venue for your graduation, family reunion, birthday party, company outing or any other event. We have a bounce house to rent for your event! If you’re worried about weather, we have rentals available at the Morehouse Chalet, SeniorPlace and the Brooktree clubhouse.

We hope you are able to make time to take advantage of your parks, trails, facilities and programs during this wonderful time of the year! We welcome your comments and suggestions. Let us know how we are doing!
