We're welcoming autumn with open arms at Country Cottage, and getting ready to live our best winter. So many fun events are coming up, which means each day is as active as our residents like. We held a 'watch party' to take part in the chair yoga lesson on Optima Living TV Episode 1: Fitness in Later Life (more on that below), and it was fun to see residents joining in.

National Food Bank Day

Residents stuffed the bus on National Food Bank Day. All donations went to the Strathcona Food Bank. We had a splendid afternoon with s'mores and some live music! Combined with Aster Gardens, another Optima Living community, we raised 1125 pounds of food for the Strathcona Food Bank.

As a team, Optima Living residences across Western Canada raised 5952 pounds of food for local food banks and charities. Read more about our food bank initiative here.
