Watercrest Buena Vista's Month-Long Celebration of Holiday Joy and Community Spirit

The community transformed into a festive haven, where residents engaged in time-honored traditions, attended celebratory events, and indulged in sweet holiday delights, all within the elegant surroundings of their luxury senior living facility.
Kicking Off the Festivities with the Festival of Wreaths
The celebrations commenced with the much-anticipated Festival of Wreaths, an event that lighted up the community. Beautifully decorated wreaths, generously donated by local vendors, were auctioned off to raise funds for Wreaths Across America—a heartfelt initiative honoring fallen soldiers. The event featured a lively performance by the Hometown Twirlers and delightful Christmas carols courtesy of Suzi and Janelle, creating a warm and jovial atmosphere for all.
Joyful Visits and Festive Fun
Adding to the holiday cheer, a surprise visit from Santa Claus delighted residents as they celebrated National Pajama Day alongside National Candy Cane Day. Residents participated in festive dances and sipped on warm eggnog, capturing the essence of the holidays through laughter and camaraderie. The community also enjoyed captivating performances by the talented dancers of Ballet Dénouement and vibrant live music from Virgil, making every moment unforgettable.
Associate Celebration
The spirit of community extended beyond residents as associates gathered for their annual Christmas party, which featured an Ugly Holiday Sweater Contest. These joyful events contribute to Watercrest's reputation as a Certified Great Place to Work, fostering a culture of celebration, teamwork, and respect among everyone involved.
A Trip to the World Equestrian Center
