2025 was quite the year for our active independent community at Peterson Meadows!

From getting our steps in to raise awareness of Parkinson's disease in April and fishing in June to busting a move at the Sock Hop in September and turkey trotting in November, there were many memorable moments! Check out these photos of some of our favorites.

The Christmas spirit was captured by our friends at WIFR! Friendship, family, community, and great food were all shared among residents and staff.

Residents at Peterson Meadows gathered Christmas Day for an annual holiday dinner, spending the afternoon sharing a meal and time with one another.

This is what a tight-knit senior living community looks like!👇

Chaplain LaMar Pulliam and a group of residents and staff recently visited resident Alice Alfredson during her stay in a health and rehab center.

It's a pleasure to be part of a community that treats one another like family.

Special thanks to resident Herb Meldahl for the photo.

The 2025 CEO Christmas Party at Peterson Meadows was a holly jolly good time!

Our President and CEO Frances Salinas invited residents, staff, members of the Board of Trustees and Leadership Team, and their loved ones to this holiday celebration in the beautifully decorated Dick and Pat Nyquist Family Chapel.

The event featured exquisite appetizers and craft beverages prepared and served by our Dining Services Team and delightful holiday music performed by father-son duo John and Joe Boettcher.

Thank you to everyone who helped to organize this amazing Christmas party for our community. It was a great blessing to see so many members of the Peterson Meadows family gathered together to celebrate the season!
