Daily Activities and Special Events
Message from the Director, Administrator
As August unfolds, our home is making the most of the late-summer weather and a busy schedule of activities.
The courtyard and gardens are in full bloom, offering a peaceful space for residents and visitors to enjoy the outdoors. Thank you to everyone in the gardening club for keeping the grounds looking exceptional.
Our outdoor areas provide a wonderful backdrop for socializing. Alongside our regular programs featuring live music and seasonal activities, we are thrilled to welcome back our annual car show. Dust off your favorite vintage clothing and join us to admire the classic cars that defined an era.
Thank you to our residents, families, and staff for a wonderful summer season.
