DETAILS:
St. Vincent will host a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Patricia Browning Stone indoor/outdoor sensory playground on November 5. The new state-of-the-art, therapeutic sensory playground will help provide sensory stimulation and cognitive development for children who struggle with a variety of conditions such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD).
The playground was made possible due to a generous donation by Bill and Mary O’Daniel Stone. They are natives of Evansville and are 1973 graduates of Memorial High School. Bill is CEO of Connecticut based, SS&C Technologies, which also has a large Evansville office. The playground will be named in honor of Bill’s mother, Patricia Browning Stone, who is also a graduate of Memorial High School and of the St. Mary’s School of Nursing.
The St. Vincent Center for Children is a comprehensive outpatient facility that was created to address the unmet healthcare needs of the region’s children. Services include pediatric behavioral health, pediatric subspecialty clinic, a resource center that provides care coordination for subspecialty referrals and the Tri-State’s only behavior-based, feeding therapy program.
Bill and Mary Stone, members of the St. Vincent staff and several community leaders will be in attendance for the ribbon cutting ceremony.
