Springtime Smiles: Gardens, Soda Floats, and Scenic Paths

Category: Senior Living

Author: Trent Langton, Plant Operations Director

Now that spring is in full swing, it’s the ideal time to refresh outdoor spaces and bring a renewed energy to our community. The season’s warmer weather, blooming landscapes, and longer days offer residents more chances to connect with nature and each other.

At University Senior Living, we prioritize creating a safe, tidy, and welcoming environment. Our team works closely with our landscaping partner to prepare the grounds, enhance curb appeal, and ensure everything is ready for springtime enjoyment.

Spring events bring even more life to the season. Residents participate in flower club gatherings, gardening projects, and bird watching. They also take part in walking and rolling sessions along our scenic path. One of our most cherished traditions is the Soda Shop Social, where our enthusiastic Plant Operations Director, Trent, takes on the role of soda jerk, much to the delight of everyone involved.

These outdoor experiences do more than entertain—they encourage movement, foster community, and support residents’ well-being. A clean and thoughtfully maintained landscape invites residents to step outside, soak in the sunshine, and enjoy meaningful moments together.

As April continues, our community’s outdoor spaces transform into vibrant hubs of relaxation and connection. Whether enjoying quiet time in the garden or joining in a lively event, residents benefit from an environment that reflects care, creativity, and community spirit.
