The Springs at Tanasbourne

We’re proud to serve many veterans across our 20 communities in the Pacific Northwest—and yesterday, we had the joy of celebrating them in a truly unforgettable way.

Thanks to Dream Flights, a dozen veterans from several of our Oregon communities took to the skies in a historic Boeing Stearman biplane. Family, friends, and team members gathered at the McMinnville airport to cheer them on, filling the day with smiles, laughter, and heartfelt moments.

A special salute to two veterans from our Hillsboro community -- Larry Sitter (Army) and Joe Oakes (Army) -- who took to the skies like the heroes they are.

Kindness is contagious. 🌟

Meet Mariel from The Springs at Whitefish. What started with eight skeins of yarn and a big heart has grown into The Knit Wits, a group that knits, crochets, and gives back to the Whitefish community.

“We started with just eight skeins of yarn in a cardboard box. Today, we’ve donated over $14,000 to Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) to help provide safe, loving homes for children in need.”

Thanks to the generosity of their community, The Knit Wits received over $700 in donated yarn just this last June, proof that kindness spreads quickly.

Hands busy, hearts full, and lives changed—this is what it means to live life to its fullest. 💛

A Tribute to Lifelong Friendship

Some friendships begin in the most unexpected places: a shared dinner table on a cruise, a spontaneous road trip, or even a community tour. For four residents at The Springs at Tanasbourne, what started as casual conversation turned into decades of adventure, laughter, and unwavering support.

From exploring every U.S. state and steering a canal boat in England to simply living two doors apart in retirement, their story is a beautiful reminder that true friendship only deepens with time.

At The Springs Living, we’re honored to be part of their journey, proof that joy, connection, and belonging are always within reach when you're surrounded by the right people.
