Time stands still for no one – not even the retirement community.

Acacia Cove Village had a big Mid-Winter Celebration on Friday, 12th July. As usual everybody came dress to impress. The chef prepared a marvelous meal, and the entertainment was spot-on. I think I can speak for everyone who attended… it truly was a night to remember!

Early in August our Village Manager, Bruce Cullington are planning a celebration-lunch for all our residents over 90. We were quite amazed to see that the number of our nonagenarian’s has grown to 32.

What an amazing milestone!
