Wakefield Cottage
Wakefield Memorial Cottage, built as a result of a gift from Olaf and Rosa Atkinson Wakefield, was opened in 1995. It is the second of the three cottages erected for girls at Boys and Girls Homes. Today it is home for eight girls. Though not linked to a particular civic group, the cottage receives support from many Extension Cooperative Association Groups, Greater Federation of Women, Women's Civic League and churches. Their gifts provide financial support for the operation of the cottage and encouragement to the children living in the cottage. Click on the picture to see the inside of a "typical girls cottage."
