Hear that? It's coming from the beloved drum circle in The Meadows Assisted Living, filled with rhythm, movement, and your favorite songs. There is only one rule: There's no such thing as a mistake! And, each session ends with a crowd favorite, YMCA!

This resident favorite is made possible thanks to our amazing team — Navigators, Community Life, Resident Assistants, Dining, and Housekeeping — all working together behind the scenes.

Faces of Frasier: Resident Edition! Say hi to Mary, who lives in The Meadows Assisted Living and moved into Frasier with her husband, Bob, in 1997! Before they moved in, she thought they needed a town house on a golf course, but one look at the Flatirons view from their 4th floor apartment made Bob go “This is what we need. Sold!”.

A quick Q&A with Mary:
Q: If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
A: I would pick what everybody would pick, peace and good sense for everybody, that kind of thing.

Q: What is your favorite flower?
A: I thought it was Gladiolus for years, but really it was my mother’s favorite. I would say mountain flowers, like bluebells and all the flowers that come out in Wyoming in early spring.

Q: What is your favorite memory at Frasier?
A: Once per year, we would put together what we called Follies. It was a talent show where people would read a poem or sing a song. That was a lot of fun. I performed in all of them. I sang with Ed (former resident), “My brother Bill got a still on the hill”. One year we were doing line dancing - it was hard on the hips, but I love to dance. I’ve got a lot of good memories here.

Mary reminds us that resilience and humor can go a long way. We’re grateful she calls Frasier home. See you next time for another Faces of Frasier!

It’s National Tell a Joke Day — so of course we had to feature our unofficial “dad joke champion”, Corey Dragge, Director of Facilities!

Not only does Corey (and his rockstar team) keep Frasier’s 20-acre campus running like clockwork, he does it with a smile and a quick punchline. Hoping Corey inspires you to share a giggle today! 😄

Wellness has a new face this summer – meet Mason, our Exercise Specialist Intern!

Mason has been busy leading spin, balance, and power classes, shadowing PT and social work navigators, and learning from our wellness team. He also has learned to take vitals and monitor resident exercise during Supervised Exercise Sessions. Mason says he is always amazed to see residents improve their balance and strength, even from day to day.

Soon, he will head back to CU Boulder to continue studying Physiology, Biology, and Psychology. Until then, stop by and say hi to Mason!

Faces of Frasier: Team Member Edition! Meet Kathy, a Restorative CNA who has been with the Frasier team for an incredible 33 years! She has fond memories of watching buildings being constructed and has loved seeing our community grow over the years. If you’re up early enough, she recommends the Summit balcony as a peaceful spot to enjoy the sunrise.

A quick Q&A with Kathy:
Q: What is your ideal day off?
A: I have a very big yard, with big gardens everywhere. I love just being out there, sitting, pulling weeds, and not being bothered.

Q: If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
A: I would love to be able to have this fairy dust that I could sprinkle over people so it will keep them safe from falling. That's the one thing I would have.

Q: Any advice for a team member new to Frasier?
A: You're going to love the people here. Listen to them. They're fascinating, fascinating people here. That's why I love this place so much. I just get the privilege of working and getting to know all these people and their families.

Thank you, Kathy, for always showing respect and kindness in all you do! See you next time with another Faces of Frasier!

Our Story

Frasier, located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, offers an exceptional Boulder setting, close to everywhere you’d like to be, with an enriching lifestyle and an involved community. Boulder is recognized as one of America’s best-educated, most active, happiest, and healthiest communities. It is a top travel and recreation destination with an average of 300 sunny days each year. Since 1960, Frasier has provided exceptional quality services to seniors and is Colorado’s only accredited Life Plan Community. As a not-for-profit community, the needs of our residents always come first. Our residents in independent living, assisted living, and our skilled nursing community (including memory support, respite, and rehabilitation care) reflect the diverse and eclectic population of our well-known university town, which is home to the Boulder campus of the University of Colorado. Frasier was founded by the Rocky Mountain Conference of the United Methodist Church. The groundbreaking was held on June 8, 1958, on twenty acres of land contributed by Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Frasier, and we welcomed our first residents in April 1960. Subsequently, 300 independent living apartments, 38 assisted living apartments, a skilled nursing center, an arts and education center, and an award-winning wellness center have been constructed on the campus. As a not-for-profit organization founded upon the principle of service, Frasier endeavors to provide tangible benefits both to our residents and to the greater Boulder community. While these social accountability efforts focus on caring for seniors, we are proud of our partnerships with diverse organizations that work to improve the community in areas such as health, wellness, service, and leadership.
