I heard that someone at the parade overheard a person from Gilmer say that the Peach Queen float was the Yamboree Queen, But the Pittsburg resident quickly corrected that statement.:-)
The Entertainment on Saturday was great. I want to thank the Lake Country Harmony Chorus, The Native American Indian Dancers, Billy (Elvis) Cundent, and Charlie Memphis.
Exciting things are happening at Pittsburg Nursing Center, and we want to share some important news with you. Loyalty from our community like you has fueled continued growth, prompting the new owners of Pittsburg Nursing to build a brand new state of the art facility right here in our very own community.
The new building will be located next to ETMC Pittsburg and include beautiful rooms with private baths or showers and the ever important feeling of home. Fine dining, quality care, and a highly-trained, friendly, local staff will be available during a patient’s stay at Pittsburg Nursing. The new building will also house a fully-equipped rehabilitation gym for treatment using the most advanced medical equipment.
“One of the best features in our community is that most of the staff, families, and residents are local to Pittsburg,” says Ashley Hong, Business Development. “There’s lots of longevity and loyalty in our community. We’re the only skilled nursing facility in Pittsburg. There won’t be a finer facility anywhere in the state of Texas.”
Please stay tuned for our groundbreaking celebration in 2017. To meet our ground breaking goal, Pittsburg Nursing Center is in the process of a huge census push, and your support is much appreciated.
It is time again to work on the 2016-2017 City of Pittsburg CommuniTee T-shirt. I have met with the representative from LogoNation and have settled on a design for this year’s T-Shirt. The design is a community project that enables us to hand out T-Shirts at community functions and for unique visitors to Pittsburg. I have personally met with Alyssa Record, our communiTee representative. We have worked with this company for the last several years, and I encourage you to participate in this program.
