What a great way to explore the Green Valley area!

Who won that bright red tricycle we were raffling off during our Spring concert series?

Jonnie Stowe.

You may recognize Jonnie’s face if you're a frequent visitor to La Posada’s Senior Lunch program or attend the Community Center’s Reader Theatre program.

Jonnie is a dedicated, long-time volunteer who helps dish out and serve food at our senior lunch program. She loves to help feed others and is always ready to help with a problem.

Jonnie is giving her new tricycle to her brother, Ken, who has shown an interest in cycling through the desert vistas.

The tricycle raffle donations totaled $314, while our Spring concert series donations totaled $796.

All donations from the raffle and the Spring concert series benefit La Posada Community Services, which offers low-cost preschool and child care, a senior lunch program, a welcoming gathering place, and an Adult Day Services social club to the Green Valley-Sahuarita community.

For further information about La Posada Community Services, visit their webpage:

Congrats to Jonnie and Ken on their new set of three wheels, and thank you, everyone, for making the Spring concert series a success.

“What exercises are best for improving mobility and staying independent as we age with Parkinson’s?”

At La Posada, we hear that question often… and now, we’re answering it with movement, music, and momentum.

In March, we introduced our new Functional Movement for Parkinson’s and Mobility Class — or as we like to call it: Movement for All.

This idea isn’t just an exercise. It’s a strategy for living well.

Because here’s the truth, many retirees are quietly searching for: How do I stay steady on my feet, confident in my body, and connected to the life I love?

The Functional Movement for Parkinson’s and Mobility class was built for exactly that.

Led by Karen Baker, who believes movement is medicine, each session blends physical and mental challenges designed to improve:

• Balance and strength
• Coordination and flexibility
• Brain engagement through neuroplasticity
• Confidence in everyday movement

Karen is certified in Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery and is an American Parkinson’s Disease Association fitness trainer.

So whether it’s getting in and out of your car with ease, walking stairs more confidently, or keeping up on outings with friends, these are the kinds of everyday wins you're working toward.

And yes. There may be singing, laughter, and even a few creative obstacle courses along the way 🎶

One of the most powerful parts? You don’t have to do it alone.

Couples and partners attend together, learning how to support one another through safe, effective movement. It becomes less about “working out” and more about moving forward — together.

In addition, this class is for those residents looking for a low-key way to improve how they move, think, and feel each day.

Because while we may not stop every symptom, we can slow the decline, build strength, and help you keep doing the things you love a little easier each day.

At La Posada, staying active isn’t about pushing limits. It’s about preserving freedom, joy, and the rhythm of everyday life.

And that’s a problem worth solving.

Functional Movement for Parkinson’s is available only to La Posada residents.

🐰✨ Breaking News from the Bunny Trail!

Peter Cottontail didn’t just hop down the bunny trail this year. He made a special stop at Los Niños del Valle Preschool! And let’s say—he didn’t come empty-handed.

With a basket full of colorful eggs and a sprinkle of springtime magic, our annual Easter Egg Hunt turned into a joyful adventure where tiny explorers became expert egg detectives. Every giggle, every “I found one!” moment, and every carefully carried egg felt like a little burst of sunshine.

Because here’s the real secret behind the bunny’s visit…

Events like this aren’t just about toys, stickers, and eggs. They’re about building confidence, sparking curiosity, and creating those core childhood memories that stick to your heart like jellybeans.

Just like Peter Cottontail plants surprises along the trail, these moments plant something even more important in our students—
✨ teamwork
✨ imagination
✨ joy in discovery

And maybe… just maybe… a lifelong belief that a little magic can hop into your day when you least expect it.

Until next year, Peter—we’ll be ready. And we’ll be fast.

Happy Easter from the La Posada family to yours.

The Los Niños preschool and childcare is located on the La Posada at Green Valley campus

“Is there always someone available if I need help at La Posada?”

At La Posada at Green Valley, the answer is beautifully simple: Just dial “0.” ☎️

For 30 years, our La Posada Service Center has been the friendly voice on the other end of the line, day or night, on weekdays or holidays.

Since April 1, 1996 (and 24/7 since 2012!), this amazing team has been the go-to resource for everything—big or small, urgent or just a quick question. Think of them as part neighbor, part problem-solver, part calm-in-the-storm.

What happens when you dial “0”?

A real person answers… ready to help with:

• Scheduling a ride to a doctor’s appointment or answering questions about the daily bus route
• Fixing something that needs attention in your home or apartment
• Helping with tech or internet issues
• Coordinating help in an emergency
• Reserving a guest apartment for visiting family
• Or simply answering a question about La Posada events, classes, etc.

And one of the most caring touches…
💛 Buddy Calls — a daily “I am fine” check-in for residents.

La Posada Service Center Operations:

- 10 dedicated team members working across 3 shifts, 24 x 7, 365 days per year year
- 400 calls answered every single day on our Green Valley campus
- All resident calls for assistance are routed to the proper La Posada department for fast response times.

Why residents love it: Because it feels like someone is always looking out for you. Use one number, and a team responds to assist you.

A big THANK YOU to our Service Center team:
You answer hundreds of calls each day with kindness, patience, and heart. You keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes and step up when it matters most.

Here’s to 30 years of answering the call and always being there when needed.

What makes a senior living community feel truly welcoming, not just comfortable?

At La Posada at Green Valley, the answer is simmering in our kitchens, and it tastes a lot like home.

Our Dining Services team already delivers exceptional culinary experiences, but in 2026, something even more meaningful is unfolding. Think of it as a community cookbook in motion, where every recipe becomes a shared story.

La Posada dining services has set a Wildly Important Goal: 26 resident-inspired recipes in 2026. Each dish, whether it’s a comforting side, a vibrant salad, or a memorable dessert, carries the flavor of someone’s life, traditions, and table. So far, 11 recipes have already come to life, each one connecting memories to present moments.

This idea didn’t begin with a plan. It began quietly, as a handwritten resident recipe slipped into a mailbox. Over time, more followed. Thoughtful contributions. Gentle suggestions.

Because here’s the truth: The best communities don’t just serve meals… they invite people to shape them.

To honor that spirit, every La Posada recipe remains anonymous. This idea creates space for residents to contribute freely, without pressure, knowing their ideas are transformed with care. Our culinary team thoughtfully scales these recipes from home kitchens to serve 80 to 150 residents, turning one idea into a shared experience.

And what’s inspiring our future dining menu?

✨ A smoky salmon spread that carries a hint of coastal nostalgia
✨ Marmalade French toast casserole that turns brunch into a warm ritual
✨ Greek lemon soup that brightens a cool day
✨ Seafood pasta salad layered with citrus, herbs, and richness
✨ A reimagined blueberry torte

These recipes aren’t just recipes. They’re edible heirlooms. Little time capsules that allow residents to share a piece of their story and feel seen, valued, and connected.

By the end of the year, this journey will culminate in a community cookbook that preserves these flavors and stories for years to come.
