We’re proud to share that Holiday The Regent has earned an Atria Senior Living Q Award! 🏆 This recognition is given to communities that achieve outstanding scores across dining, activities, cleanliness and overall resident experience.

"I cannot thank our hardworking staff enough for the work they do to make our community shine – in many cases literally – for all residents," shares Kiersten, the General Manager. "Our community is special, and that’s due in large part to their efforts. It’s also due to the residents who call the Regent home."

A huge thank-you to this incredible team and all our other Q award winners for their dedication, and to our residents, who make our communities special places to call home. 💙

Kjell’s passion is woodworking. ⚒️

Originally from Norway, he came to the U.S. at just 15 and built a life in Seattle. After retiring, he and his wife Marilyn moved into a cottage at Holiday Hidden Lakes to be closer to family.

From piggy banks for his 24 great-grandchildren to handcrafted pens, clocks and birdhouses, Kjell is still an active craftsman. The workshop he set up in the cottage's garage is his happy place, and he’s even made hundreds of small wooden crosses for the community chaplain to share.

Marilyn says, “He’s always happiest in his shop." And with his talent and dedication, it’s easy to see why.

We’re proud to celebrate Bobby, a recent high school graduate who has been part of the Holiday Country Squire waitstaff team since age 15. He's heading off to study nursing at Missouri Western State University.

"One of my favorite parts about working at Country Squire has been having meaningful conversations with our General Manager," Bobby shares. He says these conversations have helped shape his goals for the future.

"He's a wonderful young man who we love," shares Shirley, one of the community's residents. With plans to become a traveling nurse, Bobby is set to make a difference while seeing the world.

Congratulations, Bobby!

Happy Birthday, Marie!🍦

Holiday Pinegate celebrated the 83rd birthday of one of their fabulous Resident Ambassadors with an ice cream social! Residents, friends, neighbors and family enjoyed sweet toppings galore and joined in a game of “How Well Do You Know Marie?” trivia.

"I want to share a huge 'thank you' to everyone who made the day so special," shares Marie. "I'm so glad you all celebrated with me. It was the best birthday I ever had."

Residents at Holiday Quail Run Estates created their own living masterpieces, nesting succulents into layers of soil, sand and rock to make terrariums. "The residents had fun making them," shares Melissa, the community's Engage Life Coordinator.

Grandparents' Day was extra special this year! Leading up to the celebration, grandchildren dropped off their favorite “stuffies” to stay with residents for the week. The stuffed friends joined in on fitness classes, book clubs and even community outings – and we captured it all in photos to share with their grandchildren.

On Grandparents' Day itself, families reunited for Muffins with Grands, picked up their stuffies and keepsake photo booklets, played backyard games and ended the day with popcorn and a movie together.

It was a celebration of the love, laughter and the impact grandparents have on their families.
