A heartfelt thank you to Carol, Bridget, and Deb from The Nature Connection for bringing such joy, energy, and meaningful engagement to our Neighborhood!

Our residents took a lively “armchair journey” through South America, danced along to The Girl from Ipanema, and had the pleasure of meeting some unforgettable new friends—Big Sally the Eastern spotted salamander, Mr. Toad, and Gary the guinea pig.

The experience truly captured the spirit of spring, blending vibrant culture with the wonders of nature. Residents loved learning fascinating facts about these critters and exploring the beauty and diversity that this colorful season brings. 🌸

☘️ Our Wingate community truly struck gold this St. Patrick’s Day! The day was filled with festive personalities, laughter, and incredible energy as residents and team members came together dressed in their best green. From raising a glass of green beer to enjoying delicious Irish bread, every moment was filled with joy, connection, and celebration. The music was lively, the dancing was contagious, and the smiles were everywhere—you could truly feel the spirit of the holiday throughout the entire community.

The highlight of the day was a special visit from the Harney Crawford Academy of Irish Dance, who treated our residents to an unforgettable performance full of rhythm, culture, and excitement. It was an Irish good time in every sense—bringing people together, lifting spirits, and creating meaningful moments we won’t soon forget.
