Celebration of the Stars
Picture this, if you can: One day, and one special event so big that it can reach almost 6,000 team members at Discovery Senior Living communities across the nation! That’s just what we did on Friday, June 4 as part of our first-ever Celebration of the Stars.
Summer 2021 “Sale-a-bration” Event
There was plenty of reason to celebrate after one of our Florida regional sales teams racked up 116 move-ins in just one month! It was a record-breaking month (and quarter) for that region’s sales team, which we treated to a hard-earned, two-night celebration.

The festivities began with a dinner and commemoration ceremony, and culminated on night two with “A Dance for the Ages,” a special, private event held at the Hilton Naples featuring food, music and dancing and the joy and satisfaction of coming together as a team to celebrate this amazing achievement.
Parking Lot Party
It took some ingenuity and innovation, but COVID and all, we found a way to safely gather and have some Friday afternoon fun together!

This 2020 Parking Lot Party was just one way the company gave back to Team Members, who enjoyed food and drinks (including free beer!), carnival-style games, and a chance to relax and cut loose during what was a year like no other!
Corporate Home Office Ribbon Cutting
Our company’s rapid growth has put us firmly at the forefront of the senior living space, and in mid-2020, we proudly settled into a cutting-edge corporate headquarters.

Modeled after some of those jaw-dropping headquarters of Silicon Valley’s tech titans, it’s an awesome thrill to call this place our company’s new home. So most heartfelt thanks to our executive leadership and everyone who had a hand in making this remarkable vision a reality, and here’s to a triumphant future in our new headquarters!
Sarasota Bay Groundbreaking

Company executives, developers, and invited guests including approximately 40 members of the Bradenton and Sarasota business communities were in attendance.
