🌟 Happy International Volunteer Day 🌟

Today, we celebrate and thank the amazing individuals who make our retirement village a wonderful place to call home.

A special shout-out to our village committees, whose leadership and commitment help shape the vibrant and welcoming community we all love.

It’s because of you—our volunteers, committee members, and community champions—that our village thrives as a place of connection, care, and belonging.
