A Word from our CEO

I would like to share with all of you that our annual State Survey has just completed in the Health Center. Two surveyors conducted the survey on behalf of the State of Wisconsin Department of Health Services. I am pleased to announce that the health care portion of the survey resulted in no citations.

Congratulations to everyone on our staff. This is quite the accomplishment! Certainly it is no easy task given all the challenges facing our community each and every day.

The Survey Team wanted everyone to know how impressed they were with the care our residents received, how well everyone works together. The surveyors mentioned as they interviewed residents and family members how complimentary they were of Cedar Crest and how safe they feel here.

Cedar Crest is blessed to have each and every one of our team members! On behalf of Cedar Crest, thank you for doing what you do and making a positive difference in the lives of all our residents.

Camp Randall: Civil War to “On, Wisconsin”

Camp Randall: Civil War to “On, Wisconsin”

Step back in time and explore the remarkable 175-year history of Camp Randall—one of Wisconsin’s most significant historic sites. In this presentation, you’ll trace Camp Randall’s transformation from a Civil War training ground to one of the most iconic college football stadiums in the nation.

You’ll learn how Madison became Wisconsin’s capital in 1848 and how land once used for state fairs was repurposed during the Civil War to train Union soldiers under Governor Alexander Randall. Discover the powerful stories of the more than 70,000 Wisconsin soldiers who trained at Camp Randall, as well as the Confederate prisoners of war who were held there and whose final resting place remains in Madison today.

As you move beyond the Civil War era, you’ll follow Camp Randall’s transition into a University of Wisconsin athletic facility. Relive the excitement of early Badger football, including the historic 1917 victory over the University of Minnesota, and see how the stadium evolved through decades of expansion and renovation.

You’ll also experience the traditions that make Camp Randall legendary—from game day rituals like “Jump Around” to the post-game “5th Quarter.” By the end of this presentation, you’ll have a deeper appreciation for how Camp Randall became a symbol of Wisconsin history, resilience, and Badger pride.

There’s a lot that goes into making the move to a senior living community. While it can seem like a daunting endeavor, it doesn’t have to be. That’s why we’ve invited the senior move specialists at Segues to share their expert insights on how to declutter and right-size, as well as their strategies on deciding what to keep, what to sell, and how to sell it.

During the event, Segues organizational experts will show you why getting organized can be the key to making more room for what you love, and will offer practical strategies for every phase of the process. They’ll also take time to unpack any questions you may have along the way. Then, before you go, you can find out more about Cedar Crest and take a tour. That way, on top of feeling equipped to master your move, you’ll have a clear picture of all the ways our community continues inspiring residents to live their lives to the fullest.
