It was an honor to host our annual Civil Services Appreciation Luncheon today! We had the pleasure of welcoming approximately 50 of Shorewood’s dedicated civil service workers to the Timbers. By popular demand, we served up our famous Timbers Taco Bar as a small token of our gratitude. This annual event is our favorite way to say "thank you" for everything these individuals do to keep the community safe, running smoothly, and thriving every single day!

The Timbers recently donated $1,500 to Shorewood HUGS (Helping U Get Started)! Throughout February, our residents, staff, and families teamed up for some amazing fundraisers. This was our first year fundraising for HUGS, and we are already looking forward to next year! Shorewood HUGS. has done incredible work since 2008, fulfilling over 1,300 wishes locally. We are honored to support their mission of spreading hope right here in our neighborhood. https://www.timbersofshorewood.com/timbers-of-shorewood-donates-to-shorewood-hugs-2026/

We are beyond thrilled to share that the Timbers of Shorewood has been recognized in U.S. News & World Report’s 2026 Best Senior Living ratings! Not only did we earn the "Best Assisted Living Award," but for the second year in a row, we’ve been named "Best Independent Living!"

These awards are based on consumer-satisfaction surveys from our own residents and families. It’s an honor to know that the care and community we provide resonate so deeply with those who call the Timbers home.

From being voted Will County’s Best for four years running to these new national accolades, we remain dedicated to being the Joliet area's leader in senior living. https://www.timbersofshorewood.com/best-independent-living-award-best-assisted-living-award-us-news-2026/

We were blown away by the incredible turnout for our Hippity-Hop Easter Bunny Lane Drive Up this past Saturday! Despite the heavy rain forcing a last-minute pivot from our traditional lawn hunt, the community spirit was brighter than ever. The Easter Bunny distributed 13,000 candy-filled Easter eggs directly to children through their car windows. Approximately 250 cars joined us for the celebration.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this event such a success.

Due to a week of heavy rainfall, The Timbers has changed the format of its highly anticipated Hippity-Hop Easter Egg Hunt. To ensure the safety and comfort of all guests and residents, the traditional outdoor egg hunt will be replaced with a drive-up Easter bunny greeting. As part of this modified celebration, the Easter Bunny and Timbers staff will hand out Easter eggs filled with candy directly to children through car windows.

While we are disappointed that the outdoor grounds are too saturated for our traditional lawn hunt and petting zoo, we didn’t want the weather to keep us from hopping into the fun. Our seniors and staff are excited to change to this drive-up format so we can still share a smile, a wave, and some treats with our neighbors in a safe, dry way.

The Hippity-Hop Easter Bunny Lane Drive Up is from noon - 1 p.m. Saturday, April 4. The Easter Bunny will hand out Easter eggs filled with candy.

While everyone else was celebrating Valentine’s Day on 2/14, we were celebrating something even more legendary: Eleanor’s 107th Birthday! The Timbers was a full of family, friends, and staff.

The game might have been a bit of a snoozer, but the energy at the Timbers Touchdown Party was anything but! Between the delicious snacks and the fun of Commercial Bingo, the room was full of cheers. A huge congrats to our bingo winners who walked away with some extra sweet treats! There’s nothing like sharing a few laughs (and some wings) with great friends at the Timbers!
