❄️ Snowy February Magic at Cornwall Manor ❄️

There’s something peaceful about waking up to a fresh blanket of snow across our campus. This morning, Cornwall Manor was transformed into a winter wonderland — glistening trees, quiet paths, and views that make you pause and take it all in.

Whether you’re enjoying the scenery from a cozy window or taking a brisk winter walk, days like this remind us just how beautiful our community truly is. 🤍

🌿 Life at Cornwall Manor: Where Nature Feels Like Home 🦌

One of the things that makes Cornwall Manor so special is its beautiful, wooded campus—an oasis of towering trees, peaceful walking paths and plenty of wildlife who call it home right along with us.

If you stroll near the garden plots on the Buckingham Mansion grounds, don’t be surprised to spot a few of our regular visitors: Cornwall Manor’s resident deer. They wander gracefully through the gardens, adding a touch of quiet magic to our days.

Whether you’re gardening, taking an afternoon walk or simply enjoying the view from your porch, the natural beauty of this community is always close by.
🌳 Cornwall Manor—where nature and neighborliness grow together.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our lunch pop‑up this week—what a delicious afternoon!

Our team served up crispy wings tossed in a lineup of mouthwatering sauces, but the clear standout was Chef Toscano’s signature Blueberry BBQ sauce. Sweet, smoky, and just the right amount of tang… it disappeared fast! 💙🔥

From classic heat lovers to adventurous flavor explorers, there was something for everyone—and we loved seeing all the smiling (and sauce‑covered!) faces.

✨ Stay tuned for our next pop‑up… Chef Toscano is already dreaming up new creations!

February Happy Hour Recap

Residents gathered last evening for a warm and lively February Happy Hour filled with great music and even better company. The event featured wonderful live musical entertainment that set a cheerful tone throughout the room, complemented by a spread of refreshments enjoyed by all. Laughter, conversation and fellowship made the evening a bright spot in the winter season—another delightful opportunity for our community to connect, relax and share time together.

🚧 Big Progress on the Buckingham Campus! 🏡✨

The new Grandview homes are rising quickly — roof trusses are now set, and framing is well underway!

The construction team has been hard at work installing engineered truss systems, which not only speed up the build timeline but also provide superior structural integrity and energy efficiency. With the framing taking shape, you can really start to see these beautiful new homes come to life.

Stay tuned… walls are going up, roofs are taking form and the Buckingham Campus neighborhood is growing by the day! 🔨📈

🏐 WATER VOLLEYBALL SHOWDOWN RECAP! 🌊🔥

What a morning at the pool! The highly anticipated Cornwall Crushers faced off against the spirited President’s Staff Team in today’s Water Volleyball Tournament—and fans were treated to two action‑packed games!

From the opening serve, both sides showed impressive energy and teamwork, but the President’s Staff quickly found their rhythm. Despite some incredible defensive saves and crowd‑pleasing rallies from the Crushers, the Staff team powered through and claimed victory in both games.

Huge shoutout to all players for bringing the heat (and the splashes!) and to everyone who came out to cheer them on.

✨ Winter smiles all around! ❄️💙
