The Springs at Carman Oaks

Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."

For Active Aging week, we arranged five fun ways to get involved! We begin the week with a friendly competition - on Monday, floors 1 & 2 challenged floors 3 & 4 in a game of balloon badminton! We invited residents to play or to come down to support their floor even if they don’t want a spot in the game! On Tuesday, we hosted a Poker Promenade. We finished the event in our pub with with root beer floats and prizes for the best Poker hands. On Wednesday, we took a .7 mile walk along the Tualatin River Greenway. This trail is paved and boasts fantastic views of the Tualatin River. We’ll begin our walk at Tualatin Park and finish at Cook Park. Then we boarded the bus again and travel to Sweet Tomatoes for lunch! Thursday’s event was our annual Putting Championship Champagne was awarded to the first place winner. On Friday we hosted the Billiards Tournament beginning and See's Candy chocolate cigars were the prizes. A special Happy hour featuring piano music tied up our special week with a nice, little bow!
