Prost! 🍻 It's time to raise our steins and celebrate Oktoberfest at The Watermark At Almaden! We enjoyed a day filled with delicious German fare — from crispy potato pancakes and savory meatballs to house-made sauerkraut, flammkuchen, German potato salad, and creamy bacon-onion flatbread.

Residents also enjoyed lively accordion music and a fun-filled photo shoot to capture the memories.

One of this Month's Watermark University class at The Watermark at Almaden had a fun twist — a real, live snake!

Hosted by one of our amazing associates, joined by her boyfriend and their slithery friend named Midnight, a pet python! Residents learned all about snake behavior, care, and fun facts — and even had the chance to touch and hold the snake themselves!

It was a fascinating, hands-on experience that sparked curiosity and lots of smiles. Big thanks to our hosts (and their cold-blooded companion!) for bringing something truly unique to our community.
