Events

Getting together with other members of the community is rewarding. In addition to ongoing social interactions and daily routines, residents can participate in a wide range of programs, activities and events at our community. You might join others in games and conversation, or take part in resident council meetings, informational presentations, coffee and discussion groups, craft and exercise classes, bridge groups, writing groups and knitting groups. Even those who don’t consider themselves “joiners” will find themselves drawn into the action here at Golden West.

During our art classes, Golden West residents get a chance to express themselves through a combination of color, imagination and creativity. Residents feel alive as they brush the canvas with color, making landscapes, people and objects appear. Instructors help attendees refine their concept and technique, leading to wonderful works we appreciate every day.

In this lively collection of people from our senior living community, attendees read scripts, act out scenes from their favorite plays and engage in drama. This troupe brings humor and spectacle to the “stage” as they practice their favorite characters. We encourage new attendees to captivate this crowd with their talent. Drama required!

One of the best ways to create friendships is through a love of books. Come imagine new worlds, envision characters and travel the world while making memories with your fellow residents. Our monthly book club brings imagination to the room as its members explore the depths heroes go, debate themes and join in the fun by stitching narratives together with one another. We also take advantage of the Boulder Public Library’s “Books in a Bag” program – a wonderful resource!

Of the many things we offer at Golden West, our biweekly acupuncture clinic has been by far one of the resident favorites. Residents enjoy the soothing effects of acupuncture thanks to the gentle and skilled hands of Michelle LaPointe, a certified practitioner. Come and see for yourself.
