ENGAGEMENT VERSUS ENTERTAINMENT
When you move to PineCrest, you’ll find a team that truly goes the extra mile to offer a variety of opportunities. A typical week may be packed with card games, outings, cooking demos, bible study, concerts, lectures, fitness classes, sewing parties, and book clubs…the list goes on and on. Before we go any further, it’s important to understand that these offerings are not intended to entertain but rather, to engage. You see, entertainment means that you sit in the audience, simply observing, while engagement means you are an active participant. Around here, we want to invite you to get out of the bleachers and get into the game! If you only come to PineCrest for entertainment, you will have missed the point entirely. Here, we rely on our residents to contribute their talents, passions and gifts to enhance the lives of their neighbors. The absolute best part, hands down, about PineCrest is that it’s a place where lives are transformed. People seem to find purpose here. Days that were previously filled with loneliness or boredom are suddenly exchanged for days that are saturated with meaning and connection. It’s simple, when you come to PineCrest, prepare to be engaged, not entertained.

MINIMUM AGE, 55. NO MAXIMUM.
Our charter requires that you or your spouse be at least 55 for the two of you to join us at PineCrest. And while we’re owned and operated by Methodist Retirement Communities (MRC), you needn’t be Methodist or religious at all to come and enjoy the full benefits of this community. One of those benefits is that every staff member is always ready to go the extra mile as a result of our ICARE program. ICARE stands for integrity, compassion, accountability, respect, and excellence, and all our staff members have personally committed to demonstrate an ICARE principle every single day.
