Outdoor Play Space Allows
Children of ALL Abilities to Play Together
From the
Desk of
James
DeBord:
2nd
Annual
Phonathon
a Success!
To date, the 2nd Annual Phonathon
has raised over $30,000 for the Center!
We are so appreciative of every single
contribution made to this campaign
and are amazed each and every day as
additional gifts come in through the
mail — Thank You!
The success of this campaign is
certainly because of the efforts of its
chair, Mary Anne Aichele, and our
Volunteer Coordinator, Marie Johnston,
as well as all the members of the
community who made phone calls and
donations. We started this campaign in
2013 in an effort to find an economically
efficient way to raise much needed
dollars. With an almost 30% increase
in its second year, this is certainly
proving to be a successful campaign for
Schreiber.
On behalf of all the children we
serve, thank you for taking our call and
giving generously. YOU are turning
disabilities into abilities for thousands of
children right here in Central PA.

Wins Top Honors!
This spring, Central Penn Parent

Congratulations,
Angie!
Schreiber Pediatric recently created a new outdoor solid surface play area
thanks to some very generous businesses in the community. A grand opening
and thank you reception took place on Tuesday, May 13th complete with an
official ribbon-cutting, light refreshments and of course, a song performance by
just a few of the children who will benefit from this addition to the Center.
The renovation has enhanced the daycare program’s toddler play space – a
structural area that keeps them both safe and enjoying some fresh air all-year
round. Previously, there was no outdoor space to accommodate the younger
daycare children who were learning to crawl or just beginning to walk. Now,
children of all abilities, including those using walkers, wheelchairs, and
crutches, can enjoy outdoor activities together.
This project was made possible through the support of ECORE
International, a locally-based recycled flooring company, who donated
Playguard tiles, as well as other project necessities and labor. In addition,
BR Kreider excavated the space, Pennsy Supply graciously donated the
compact stone necessary to create a solid base, and volunteers from Simeral
Construction, Crossgates Golf Course and students from Lancaster Catholic
High provided the labor.
What made this event special was that it rallied members of the community
for a very important cause; everyone worked together to make sure we had the
proper equipment and that the installation was seamless. Now, each and every
day, anyone in the building can look out on the playground and see some
smiling faces enjoying the new play space. Thank you to everyone who makes
a difference here at the Center each and every day.
Attention Parents:
Important Attendance Policy Update!
In order to progress in therapy, it is very important that your child participates in
his/her sessions regularly. However, we understand that situations may arise that will
cause your child to miss a therapy session.
When you are unable to keep your child’s therapy session, please call the Center as
soon as possible and speak to the receptionist or scheduling department; therapists
should not be given notice regarding cancellations.
If you do not give prior notice to the receptionist or scheduling department and miss
a therapy session, this is considered a NO SHOW. At your first no show, you will
be issued a warning letter. At your second no show, your child will immediately be
discharged from services at the Center.
Frequent cancellations not due to illness or family emergency are tracked and
documented. Excessive cancellations (50% of your sessions in a month) could result in
your child’s appointment time(s) being altered or cancelled.
Due to the long list of children waiting for services, we cannot hold appointment times
for children that do not show up for scheduled services.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
