We’re not just waiting around for spring here at Deupree House. Senior living is in full swing all year round! This month, we have some extraordinary opportunities in addition to all of our regular events shuttle service to the usual Cincinnati Arts Association performances (how amazing was the Ballet’s Camelot last month?).
