NAMI Wood County would like to invite you to our 12th Annual Dinner, where we will share an evening focused on celebrating the beauty of resiliency. Gather with us at the Stone Ridge Golf Club for dinner, silent auction fun, awards, and keynote speaker, Dr. Ken Newbury.

Resiliency is defined as the power or ability to return to the original form, position, etc., after being bent, compressed, or stretched; elasticity. Also defined as the ability to recover readily from illness, depression, adversity or the like; buoyancy.

Please join us Monday, April 15, as we celebrate resilience, and say thank you to all of our supporters for another wonderful year at NAMI Wood County. The evening will begin with a silent auction, fellowship, and cash bar at 5 p.m. A dinner buffet will follow at 6 p.m.  Tickets for the event are $35 and include a ticket for entry to win an IPad Mini. Tickets available online or please contact the NAMI Wood County office at 419-352-0626 or info@namiwoodcounty.org for ticket information.
