July plans at Gardens on Quail include a patriotic parade, carnival games, scenic outings, a sock hop, and a Hawaiian luau. Residents, families, and friends are invited to join us.
Kick-off: A Star-Spangled Friday (July 4)
We’ll salute the red, white, and blue with a wheelchair & walker car-wash, a decorating station, and our colorful Wheelchair Parade rolling out at 2 p.m. Bring your flags, cheer on the marchers, and stay for a front-row seat to Rick Chinisci & Charlie Duo during Happy Hour at 3 p.m.
Carnival Weekend Extravaganza (Saturday, July 5)
Join us for midway-style games, bubble socials, face painting, fair treats, and prizes.
Feathered Friends & Scenic Drives
- July 8 – We officially welcome new residents to our Aviary—watch as they stretch their wings and make themselves at home.
- July 9 – Buckle up for a summertime scenic drive through the foothills. Picture windows down, mountain breezes in your hair, and that unmistakable Colorado view.
- July 23 – Butterflies beckon! Our trip to the Butterfly Pavilion promises fluttering beauty, soft landings, and maybe a caterpillar selfie or two.
Rock Around the Clock: 1950s Sock Hop & Movie Matinee (July 14)
Pull on your poodle skirts and saddle shoes—our retro diner transforms into a rock-’n’-roll dance floor at 1:30 p.m. Malts, shakes, and jukebox jams included. Finish the afternoon with a “Dirty Dancing” matinee (because nobody puts Quail in a corner).
Creative Corners
- Rise & Shine Mondays – Start every week with meditation, garden play, or coffee with neighbors.
- Tasty Tuesdays – Whip up Muddy Buddies (July 15) and Cajun Nut Mix (July 29).
- Creative Music Workshop (July 18, 1:30 p.m.) – Jam with Conor, Chef Bob, and fellow music lovers. Instruments provided—or bring your own!
Aloha, August-Eve! Hawaiian Luau (July 30)
