Help us celebrate John as he retires after 18 years with us. We hope you enjoy this new chapter in life!

Congratulations Nel! She's retiring today after 32 incredible years at West Bend. Thank you for your dedication, you will be missed! 

Congratulations to associates celebrating anniversaries in June, especially those celebrating milestone anniversaries. Your hard work and dedication are greatly appreciated! 

We love sharing pieces of our history as we celebrate our 125th anniversary. Pictured is our first home office, located at 519 Hickory Street in West Bend, it still stands today! 

Even though our first home office was occupied by November of 1908, there weren’t any full-time associates yet. Our first full-time associate was a local music teacher and orchestra leader and hired as a bookkeeper in 1918. 

We’re so lucky to have both new and returning summer associates back on campus! Best of luck to all of you! 😎

Associates are encouraged to spend their breaks walking the trails through our prairie. This photo was taken by one of our associates during an afternoon walk. Now that's picture perfect! 

The annual Steiner Stomp encourages our associates to get up and get moving for wellness month. It was a perfect day for a walk!

We met our fundraising goal for the United Performing Arts Fund! We had some fun listening to our very talented associates too. Check them out! 🎤🙌

We had some very curious visitors stop by and check out associate life at West Bend this week. 

Earlier this year, we released 15 bred hens and 5 roosters to our prairie. This is a continuation of last fall’s release in an effort to establish a resident population. To help with pheasant establishment, we’ll install a food plot this summer which will consist of sunflower, sorghum, milo, and millet, and provide a food and shelter source for the pheasants as well as other wildlife on our property. 

Congratulations to all associates celebrating their anniversary in April! Special congrats, to the following associates who are celebrating milestone anniversaries!
