At Wheatland Terrace, we are excited to be participating in the United Way Winter Wish List again this year. 💚🎄

In honor of Giving Tuesday, we’re highlighting the amazing organizations helping bring holiday joy to families through toy donations. 🎄✨

These toy drives close Friday, December 5th, but support doesn’t have to stop. Office drop-offs are welcome anytime after! 🎁

🎉Congratulations to Care Partner of the 4th Quarter from Wheatland Terrace, Tifani Gilbertson, housekeeper.

When asked why she enjoys being a care partner at Valley, Tifani says, "It's very rewarding. The residents are appreciative of the work I do, and I enjoy that very much."

Thank you, Tifani, for all you do at Wheatland Terrace!

Together we give.
A listening ear.
A steady presence.
A moment of peace when it's needed most.

This Giving Tuesday, your support of Valley Senior Living helps sustain our Chaplaincy Ministry, offering comfort, compassion, and spiritual care to residents, their families, and staff during life's most tender moments.

Your generosity helps ensure no one walks those moments alone.

Residents are having such a wonderful time during our weekly visits with the Head Start kids! ❤️

Today’s activities were all about teamwork and creativity — we built with sand, blocks, and magnetic tiles, and even practiced our numbers and letters together. It’s truly a joy having their classroom right down the hall.

We can’t wait for their next visit! 🧒👵👴✨

🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸

Wheatland Terrace, Country Estates, and Woodside Village came together today to honor the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.

Our Veterans Day program was filled with many meaningful moments led by our residents and staff — including the Color Guard, National Anthem, Pledge of Allegiance and a touching closing poem. Dolores Clark and Yen Loh performed patriotic favorites, including the Armed Forces Salute.

Each veteran was presented a certificate of recognition, signed by Mayor Brandon Bochenski and presented by Valley Senior Living staff member and veteran Andrew Hoeger.

We are grateful for their service and sacrifice—today and always. ❤️
