Our Programming

Educational Programming

We consider mental stimulation an important part of your experience at Rivertown Ridge. We offer a fully stocked library with reading materials of all types. We also have learning opportunities available for residents who wish to pursue lifelong learning that enhances their personal development and ongoing thirst for knowledge. Residents enjoy access to a variety of lectures and classes led by expert speakers and educators. Our residents also have regular access to craft and activity rooms, so they have the ability to pursue new interests or old hobbies that keep their minds actively engaged.

Social Programming

Social stimulation is another vital dimension of wellness that helps residents maintain good physical and emotional health. Social interaction can also help improve cognitive function, so increased opportunities for socialization is especially important in Memory Support. Our senior community strives to be a social hub where you and your friends and family congregate and experience new things.

We offer engaging social activities supported by our bustling community center, which is where everyone takes advantage of the numerous options to gather and visit. Other gathering spaces throughout the community include our outdoor courtyard and patio, cozy library area adjacent to a coffee corner, and a private pond that’s perfect for fishing with a friend. Creative residents also enjoy social interactions in the craft and activity rooms or joining friends for a feature film at the on-site movie theater. Residents who wish to give back to their community can also enjoy socializing while participating in various volunteer programs.

Recreational Programming

Staying physically active increases your health and well-being, so we offer an array of recreational activities and programs to residents in every stage of retirement. Personal fitness training is available for Independent Living residents eager to improve their physical wellness and Assisted Living residents who want to get or stay physically fit.

All residents have access to the community’s fitness center, which offers an exercise room and fitness classes as well as a community swimming pool, hot tub, and tennis court. Outdoor recreational enthusiasts enjoy approximately two miles of walking and hiking trails and our gardening areas appeal to residents who want to exercise their green thumbs. Our wellness center also provides spiritual meditation space and an in-house day spa for resort-style relaxation opportunities you won’t find in many other active retirement communities.
