“The art fair became bigger than we expected, but that’s what I was hoping for,” says Kristine Davis, senior living manager.

This summer, Good Samaritan Society - Jackson The Pines started a walking group that has quickly become one of the most anticipated activities of the week with residents gathering in excitement nearly 30 minutes before departure. Community members have also begun joining the walks, frequently sharing how much joy it brings them to see our residents active, engaged and enjoying time outdoors.

One resident, Gayle Titus, age 103, has been especially impacted by the program. Gayle shared that she had not left the building in more than two years prior to joining the walking group. While she doesn't walk well, being able to comfortably join the group in her wheelchair to enjoy fresh air, sunshine, and time outdoors has greatly brightened her days. The opportunity to leave the building, connect with others, and experience the community again has been meaningful to her. In fact, she has even rescheduled medical appointments at the attached hospital so she would not miss her weekly walk.

The walking group has become so much more than an exercise program. It has created opportunities for socialization, connection, and meaningful experiences that enhance quality of life for our residents while fostering stronger ties within the community. 💙
