Excitement building for a year of celebration – Otterbein turns 100 in 2012

There are a myriad of things to celebrate in life, but an anniversary of 100 years doesn’t come around every day! Otterbein Senior Lifestyle Choices is excitedly looking forward to marking a century of service to older persons and fondly remembering its beginning as a home for children and elders.

A kickoff gala for a year of recognition is planned for April 28, 2012, with a theme of “A night of celebration ... A century of making a difference.” Otterbein’s purchase agreement was Oct. 15, 1912 with the transfer of title on March 5, 1913.

This event, which begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Manor House in Mason, is black tie optional and will feature dinner, recognition and entertainment. Tickets are $50 per person, or $400 for a table of eight. Reservations will be accepted starting Feb. 1. Please contact Trish at (513) 933-5433 for additional information.

In January, a 100-day countdown to the gala will begin on www.otterbein.org.
Several months ago, committees were formed at each community and those members are busy planning events at each location where the anniversary will be celebrated throughout the year.
