55+ Active Living

Whether it’s at our Share & Care thrift store, events like our annual Garden Spot Village 1/2 Marathon & 10K or across the globe in Africa and South America, our residents are driven by purpose. From local non-profits and schools to international entrepreneurship and missions, the impact of our 55+ supportive living community knows no borders.

Here you’ll find the resources to pursue your passions, from woodworking and quilting to gardening and ministry. If a program doesn’t exist yet, our residents take the initiative to build it. Whether forming a metal shop or building homes in Honduras, this is a place where your interests turn into action.

Record Volunteer Hours

An active 55+ community wouldn’t be complete without a state-of-the-art retiree wellness center. Unlike standard retiree fitness centers, we offer an integrated approach to wellness and well-being with personal trainers who can help you achieve your training goals. Want to run a half-marathon? Ride in a bike race? Swim competitively? No problem. We will help you succeed!

Our community embraces an active lifestyle, hosting a half marathon that welcomes nearly a thousand runners each March. In addition, the aquatics program, 5K runs, Tai Chi, yoga and exercise classes are also popular among residents for wellness and longevity.

Although many residents of Garden Spot Village are retired from their careers, some have taken the opportunity to start new ones! Some have started non-profits, used their expertise to consult with local businesses or use their hobbies – like flying – to serve others. Since Garden Spot Village takes care of many daily chores, residents have a chance to use their free time for work projects and start-ups.
