✨ Happy Grandparents Day! ✨

It’s the little moments that can make the biggest impact. At Oak Trace, we see how grandparents shape their families with every laugh shared, every story told, and every bit of love passed along.

Today, we celebrate you—our wonderful residents—for the joy you bring and the memories that last a lifetime. ❤️

We were transported straight into a world of wonder… 🏰💫

At Oak Trace, for one magical afternoon, our community felt like it was right in the heart of a Disney story. We laughed with beloved characters, sang along to enchanting songs, and felt that unmistakable spark that only a little Disney magic can bring.

From princesses and pirates to talking snowmen and heroes in capes, the room was filled with color, music, and laughter. Seeing our residents, staff, and families light up in costume and spirit was a true gift.

Thank you to all the amazing participants who made this show possible. We truly felt the magic!

Back to School Bash at Oak Trace!

We had an incredible time at our Back to School Party for the children of our amazing team members! Thanks to the generosity of our residents, we were able to provide backpacks and school supplies for nearly 40 families, a true community effort that made a big impact!

The celebration was full of fun: a DJ, face painting, snacks, a colorful balloon arch, giant Connect Four, and even karaoke!

We’re so grateful for the residents who donated, and for the team members who make Oak Trace such a special place. Here's to a great school year ahead!

Oak Trace has gone country!

Our community recently held a Country Night where guests enjoyed an evening filled with great music, line dancing, and plenty of fun as the Whiskey Road Band took the stage. Their energy and classic country sound made it a night to remember!

🎶 Music. Service. Community. 🎶.

Dave Humphreys didn’t set out to lead—he just kept showing up. From jamming with Pete Seeger to founding Two Way Street Coffee House live music venue, Dave has always used music to bring people together and stand for something bigger.

These days, he’s still at it—fueling community, lifting others, and helping shape life at Oak Trace with purpose and heart.
