According to officials at the Zanesville facility, the idea for the giant slip n’ slide came from Millie herself.
“She’s always looking for opportunities to get outdoors and try new things,” the center's executive director Jackie Altier told Fox 26.
“She’s the reason we went sledding this past winter. She kept asking us to take her further and further up the hill. She is truly a resident leader. She was the first person down the slip ‘n slide and she ended up going three times,” she continued.
