Drive Down Memory Lane Block Party, June 12, 3-7pm: Two Communities, One Heart
Celebrating 40 Years of Local Senior Living in Beaverton
In an era where senior living is increasingly dominated by massive, cookie-cutter corporate chains, two independently owned communities in the heart of Beaverton are proving that “soul” and local roots still matter. For 40 years, these two neighboring havens have quietly served Beaverton’s seniors, offering not just a place to live, but a place to truly belong.
Now, they’re blocking off 10th street-to celebrate four decades of community, connection, and commitment.
The First Annual “Drive Down Memory lane” Block Party. Mark your calendars for a nostalgic, fun-filled celebration! The two communities are joining forces to host their First Annual Block Party: “Drive Down Memory lane.”
- When: June 12, 3-7pm
- Where: 10th Street, between SW Erickson Ave. and SW Biggi Ave.
- What to Expect: A vibrant neighborhood festival featuring a classic car show, live music, food, and complimentary snow cones for all ages.
- This isn’t just a party for the residents; it’s a celebration for the greater Beaverton area and adjacent neighborhoods. The goal is to spark new friendships between the residents of both communities and invite the broader public to experience the warmth and vital energy that defines independent senior living at its best. It’s the birth of a new Beaverton tradition.
Forty Years of Soul, Spirit, and Independence. What makes these two communities so special? It starts with ownership. Because they are independently owned, they aren’t bound by corporate red tape or distant boardrooms. Instead, they are run with a personal touch, deep local pride, and a genuine love for the residents.
While the communities boast an exceptionally active lifestyle indoors, their outdoor settings are equally remarkable, including garden beds for the residents and Evelyn M. Schiffler Park nearby.
A Park-Like Oasis in the City Both properties feature stunning, park-like grounds that offer a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. Winding through both communities is Beaverton Creek, a vibrant natural corridor teeming with local wildlife.
A True Neighborhood Connection: The shared creek recently brought a touch of springtime magic to both campuses. Ducks chose to lay their eggs in each community, creating a beautiful, symbolic bridge between the two properties as residents eagerly watched the new ducklings hatch.
Active Living in the Ideal Location is everything, and these communities sit right in the sweet spot of Beaverton. Residents enjoy the ultimate balance of nature and urban convenience. They are just a stone’s throw away from:
- The Beaverton City Library: A hub for lifelong learning, book clubs, and community events.
- The Elsie Stuhr Senior Center: Beaverton’s premier destination for specialized senior recreation, fitness, and socialization.
- Parks: Evelyn M. Schiffler, Veterans Memorial, and Beaverton City Park
- Local Churches, Shops & Dining: Ensuring that independence means being able to stroll to your place of interest
Come Celebrate with Us! This block party is a testament to what happens when senior living is done right-with heart, independence, and a deep dedication to the surrounding city.
Whether you are a senior looking for your next vibrant chapter, a family member exploring options, or simply a Beaverton neighbor who loves classic cars, live music, and free ice cream, you are invited. Come help us honor 40 years of local history and drive down memory lane together!
