Jim and Kathie's advice for the younger generation is worth sitting with.!
Take your time. Don't be flattered just because someone chooses you. You get to choose who is right for you, too. And when you do find that person, give it everything you have. A full life is built with patience and commitment. 💛

CARF International accreditation is one way a community chooses to be held accountable at a higher level. 💫
For more than 20 years, this process has helped our community measure itself against roughly 1,600 standards, reviewed by an objective third party. That outside perspective matters because it looks beyond what we think we are doing well and helps identify where we can keep improving.
It may not always be easy to explain, but the reason behind it is simple: residents and families deserve a community committed to excellence, transparency, and continued growth.
When Linda was asked about the key to a meaningful life, her answer came down to the person she loves. 💛
She spoke about the joy of sharing life with someone who understands you, encourages you, and stays by your side through the ups and downs. After 53 years of marriage, the love and friendship she shared with her husband still shine through every story she tells!

Maravilla had the great honor of celebrating the Class of 2026! 🎓
On June 4th, we gathered for a special dinner recognizing 13 high school graduates and 1 college graduate from our team, alongside the parents and families who helped them reach this milestone.
Their hard work and dedication deserve to be celebrated, and so do the loved ones who supported them along the way. We are proud to have these outstanding young people as part of the Maravilla team and cannot wait to see what they do next.
Congratulations, graduates! 🎉

Bocce Ball on the Green started with a few residents unsure about what it was... 🤾♂️
They picked Wednesday evenings and invited others to give it a try! That first night, 12 residents showed up, many playing bocce for the first time. By the end of the evening, they had a champion, a few new fans, and the beginning of something that already felt worth repeating.
The next week, even more residents joined in, and extra chairs had to be brought out.
That's what makes this so special. Maravilla residents don't wait for something to appear on the calendar: They have an idea, gather people around it, and turn it into a community. Bocce Ball on the Green is already becoming a tradition of its own!
A little glimpse from the trail at Lake Los Carneros. Beautiful views and just the morning that makes our fall hike sound like we can't wait for it! 🌳
At SRG Senior Living, The Fountain of You is not only a philosophy for residents, it is the heartbeat of our communities. It lives within every interaction, every act of care, and every moment of connection thoughtfully created by the people who serve here each day. Our team members are more than caregivers and hospitality professionals. They are cultivators of joy, dignity, belonging, and possibility. They help residents rediscover passions, celebrate individuality, and continue becoming who they are meant to be.
When you believe life can become richer with age, the work becomes more than a role. It becomes a calling.

A shared love of hiking brought two generations together at Lake Los Carneros!
Dos Pueblos High School Hike Club President Kellan Cotter reached out after hearing about our Maravilla Hike Club through his grandfather, who is one of our hikers. Six high school members and nine Maravilla residents met for a morning on the trail, talking about the outdoors, school, careers, and what life looked like then and now.
The connections came easily. Four former teachers encouraged a student interested in education, a resident with a master’s in film studies connected with a student planning the same path, and two hikers even shared birthday celebrations, one turning 84 and one turning 17!
Summer break is coming, but this was not a one-time walk. Another joint hike is already being planned for the fall!
At SRG Senior Living, we believe the best chapters of life are still being written.
Our new campaign, The Fountain of You, celebrates a simple but powerful truth: the essence of who you are doesn't fade with age—it deepens. Within each of us is a wellspring of passion, purpose, wisdom, and possibility waiting to be nurtured through meaningful connections, new experiences, and a
supportive community.
In this short video, you'll hear directly from residents and team members about what makes life at an SRG community so special—from friendships formed on day one and flexible dining that fits your lifestyle, to wellness opportunities, engaging activities, and a genuine sense of belonging.
Because senior living isn't about slowing down. It's about embracing a new chapter filled with opportunity, growth, and the freedom to focus on what matters most.
