This month, Williamsburg Landing is participating in the Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s on October 22^nd. Our team of staff and residents has risen over $8,000 for the organization and has set a goal of raising $13,000 before the event.

During Williamsburg Landing’s 18th annual “stuffin’ parties”, 130 resident volunteers assembled letters for the Greater Williamsburg United Way. Over 16,200 letters were mailed and volunteers worked a combined 290 hours on this project. Residents worked three full days in the month of September to help United Way in their advocacy efforts.

Many residents at Williamsburg Landing participate in our art programs and classes offered in the community. Our hallways are decorated with resident artwork created over the years. Some of our ambitious and talented residents entered their personal pieces in LeadingAge Virginia’s annual art contest. LeadingAge Virginia is an organization of not-for profit retirement communities ranging from independent living, assisted living, memory care, long-term care, and continuing care retirement communities.

When we think of social media, it usually conjures up images of young people gazing into their iPhones with their thumbs flying as they post photos, share articles and exchange messages. However, social media is no longer the exclusive property of the younger generation.

Rather, social media is opening up an enjoyable and highly beneficial new world to older Americans.
