At Village at Mill Creek, every day is filled with opportunities to move, connect, create, and reflect. Our residents enjoy a wide variety of enriching activities tailored to support well-being and bring joy. Let’s take a peek into one spring day in the life of Margaret, one of our longtime residents.
7:30 AM – Morning Peace
Margaret starts her day with a hot cup of tea and watches the light roll across the garden from her window. She loves mornings here—quiet, sunny, and full of possibility.
9:15 AM – Golden Body Fitness
She joins her neighbors in the community room for Golden Body Fitness, a low-impact group exercise that keeps her feeling strong and energized. The instructor plays music everyone can hum along to, and there’s always laughter between stretches.
10:00 AM – Morning Garden Stroll
After her workout, Margaret takes a leisurely Morning Garden Stroll with a small group of friends. They admire the spring blooms and pause at their favorite spots in the courtyard to soak in the sunshine.
11:00 AM – Creative Strokes: Bunny Bonza
Today’s art class theme is Bunny Bonza, part of the Creative Strokes series. Margaret enjoys painting whimsical bunnies while chatting about Easter memories with the group. She even picks up a few watercolor tips from her neighbor.
12:00 PM – Daily Chronicles
Margaret settles in for Daily Chronicles, a light social gathering where staff share fun trivia, seasonal facts, and stories from history. It’s a nice mental stretch before lunch, and always good for sparking conversation.
1:30 PM – Word Search with Friends
She heads to the lounge for Word Search with Friends—a quiet but cheerful space where residents work on puzzles together. Margaret loves word games and often finishes hers early so she can help others or just sit and chat.
2:30 PM – Hydration Station: Frozen Lemonade
At the Hydration Station, today’s special is Frozen Lemonade. It’s a refreshing treat, and Margaret takes hers out to the patio to enjoy the breeze and birdsong.
3:30 PM – Cup Pong
To finish off the afternoon, Margaret decides to try her hand at Cup Pong—a fun and low-pressure game that always brings out some competitive spirit. She misses more cups than she lands, but the laughter makes it worth it.
6:15 PM – Movie Matinee: Peter Rabbit
In the evening, Margaret joins others for the Movie Matinee, featuring Peter Rabbit. Blankets, popcorn, and a few smiles round out the perfect spring day.
