Talk about a great neighbor moment! Azalea Trace headed next door to the University of West Florida to cheer on the Argos in their first Division 1 game. The Argos pulled off an upset over Southern Illinois, winning 34-31 in front of a record-breaking crowd. Go Argos! 🏈💚

Residents at Azalea Trace were treated to a wonderful musical afternoon with guests from the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra! Following a delicious lunch, residents enjoyed smooth sounds and a journey through music from the 1930s to the 1960s. We’re so grateful to these talented performers for sharing their time and talents with us. 🎶❤️

Celebrating another culinary victory for a great cause! 🏆❤️

The 29th annual fundraiser for The Arc Gateway, an organization providing life-changing programs and services to more than 1,200 children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, was a tremendous success. Chef James, Lead Cook Anna King, and Cook Chow Manreal wowed attendees with Chef James's original creation, Crab Cake Rangoon with Eel Sauce and Coconut-Wasabi Crème Fraîche. The talented team earned 1st Place in the People's Choice Award and 3rd Place in the Judges' Choice competition, marking their 8th competition win, a true testament to their creativity, skill, and dedication.

Congratulations to Chef James, Anna, and Chow on another outstanding accomplishment!
