Celebrating 3 Years of Living Well Together
Three years ago, we opened the doors of Trico LivingWell with a simple yet profound goal: to help seniors age with purpose and passion. We envisioned a place where wellness wasn’t just a concept, but a part of everyday life. From August 2024 to August 2025, our residents actively embraced this vision, participating in an average of 116.63 programs per resident. In total, we offered approximately 3,650 programs throughout the year, averaging 10 programs per day. That included 726 music programs, 1,266 fitness classes, and 228 outings, showcasing our diverse and engaging calendar of events.
Today, we’re incredibly proud to say that vision has come to life. Our community isn’t just a building; it’s a vibrant home where residents truly thrive, supported by thoughtful design and a genuine sense of belonging.
What We’ve Built Together
We’ve worked hard to create a facility that truly puts our residents first. With a variety of suites that span independent living, inclusive living, assisted living, and memory care, residents can smoothly transition as their needs evolve, ensuring continuous comfort and care. We’re also incredibly proud to be Canada’s first senior community pursuing WELL v2 Certification, which means we’ve put health, air quality, and social connection at the very heart of our design. Plus, our fantastic location in Kingsland Junction keeps everyone close to shops, transit, and family – truly the best of Calgary right outside our doors.
Moments That Made Us Smile
Our calendar has been absolutely packed with wonderful moments since opening day, each one adding to the rich tapestry of our community. At our 2022 Open House, we had a great time welcoming all our curious neighbours. Then, earlier this year, our 2024 Mini Walk & Run showed everyone that age is just a number when you’re lacing up for a good cause. And of course, who could forget this spring, when our Gardening Club transformed our patio into a beautiful sea of herbs and geraniums, filling the air with laughter and that wonderful fresh-soil scent?
We’d love to hear which memory stands out most for you!
The Heart of Our Progress: Our Residents
Trico LivingWell is so much more than just a building; it’s a living, breathing community powered by the incredible people within it. We’ve seen residents leading engaging workshops and sharing their incredible life stories, while families consistently volunteer and bring so much positive energy to every event. And of course, our dedicated team—from our care partners and chefs to our fitness coaches and housekeepers—works tirelessly to make each suite truly feel like home. Together, we constantly prove that community spirit is far stronger than any single program or impressive building feature.
What’s Next on Our Journey?
We’re so excited to mark our anniversary with a special celebration for our residents and their families, as well as a Global Fest event in September for residents only. We love to celebrate with our residents whenever we can, creating memorable moments and fostering a vibrant community spirit.
