A HUGE thank you to Jeff 'Doc' Dentice and all of his volunteers and sponsors for spreading cheer to Veterans over the holidays. Today's delivery marked the 38th Annual 'Christmas with the Vets' (and the coldest delivery to date)! The delivery ensures that in-patient Veterans and residents at the Milwaukee VA Medical Center will have gifts and holiday treats for Christmas. Thank you to all involved in this amazing effort!

Today is National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day! This week, Zablocki employees dressed the part, showcasing their ugly sweaters and holiday spirit during our Winter Solstice event. As part of this end-of-year employee appreciation event, staff members were invited to take a moment to get last minute holiday shopping done at a winter market and enjoy some holiday fun. Which "ugly" sweater is your favorite?
