We are thrilled to see the very stylish Rooney Robison featured in SouthPark Magazine’s IT List for 2026!🥳

✨Our IT LIST is here and it’s a big one — celebrating 10 years of showstopping personal style in Charlotte.

SouthPark Style Editor Whitley Adkins, photographer Richard Israel and their team give us something that feels like a portrait of Charlotte itself.

In Whitley’s words:

“For 10 years, The IT List has brought Charlotteans from different neighborhoods, backgrounds and generations together in a single photo shoot — a means for highlighting diverse individuals across our community through the common denominator of killer personal style.”

This year marks the end of an era.
10 years of stories.
10 years of style.

What could be better than to close out the IT List with a photo shoot at Charlotte’s beloved 🌳 Freedom Park?

See all the photos of all 33 IT Listers in the September issue of SouthPark Magazine!

Our Life Enrichment team recently completed Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) training with Burrow, strengthening their knowledge and skills to better support residents living with dementia.

At Southminster, we believe exceptional care starts with continuous learning. This training provided valuable insights into dementia care, communication, and person-centered approaches that help create meaningful connections and enhance quality of life.

Thank you to Angela Burrow for sharing her expertise and to our Life Enrichment team for their commitment to serving residents with compassion.💙

What if aging isn't an ending, but a new season of growth?📚✨

Our residents are exploring that question together through Mark Nepo's newest book, "The Fifth Season". In this book club, participants are sharing reflections on creativity, purpose, and the gifts that come with life's later chapters.❤️

As excitement builds for this year's 8 Over 80 Celebration, we're especially honored to be reading and discussing the work of our featured speaker, Mark Nepo.🌟

Stay tuned! The announcement of our 8 nominees and the opening of ticket sales is coming soon.🤩
