DuPage Care Center to celebrate Fall Festival online

The DuPage Care Center in Wheaton and the DuPage Care Center Foundation will host the center's 53rd annual Fall Festival as a virtual event on Sept. 19.

Due to COVID-19, the event to support social and leisure activities for residents of the care center will move online at dpccfoundation.org. There, people can browse the virtual resident art show, the community car show, and the crafts show. The public also can pre-order fall festival treats, such as apple slices, taffy apples, and cake rolls. In addition, participants can order fall mums and purchase raffle tickets or donate to the foundation.

Drive-through pickup of preordered items will take place between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Sept. 19 at the care center, 400 N. County Farm Road. Limited numbers of treats and raffle tickets will be available on-site that day. All drive-through customers will be asked to remain in their cars. The raffle drawing will be held at 12:30 p.m. on Facebook.

Proceeds will benefit the care center's Resident Recreation Fund and the DuPage Care Center Foundation, which work to provide residents with quality of life programs and services throughout the year.

The care center is a 360-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility which has served the residents of DuPage County for more than 130 years.
