The creative arts room will move to allow
residents to engage in games and projects
with outdoor views and organized space.
The focal point of the commons space will
be a new cafe serving breakfast and lunch
items, along with pre-dinner wine tastings
and appetizers.
“We’re excited to bring another dining
option and offer hors d’oeuvres before dinner
with wine and socializing in the new lobby,”
Executive Director Adam Feldbauer said.
Under LifeSpire’s leadership, The Summit has
also moved its culinary program completely
in-house. (See accompanying story).
According to Facilities Manager Timmy
Colbird, Assisted Living’s finishing kitchen
is being retrofitted to a full-service kitchen,
improving the dining experience.
“It’s nice to see Assisted Living’s dining
options being equal to Independent Living,”
Marketing Director Brenda Dixon said.
“Our campus has the best of both worlds. We have our beautiful
lake and walking trails, but we’ve also enhanced a lot of the
Enterprise Drive side, located in the heart of Wyndhurst, with
coffee shops, restaurants and other amenities, giving residents
the convenience and excitement of the city and the beauty of the
country in one location,” Dixon said.
“We’re really looking forward to the completion of our grand
entrance at Grand Summit Drive. We’ve accomplished so much
in the past year and we’re looking forward for what’s next to
come.”
Assisted Living upgrades also include
relocating the private dining room and
building a salon.
The Summit continues to embark on new projects with the
leadership team and residents working on a master plan for the
coming years. “LifeSpire is looking at where are our needs are
and putting the money and efforts into making those upgrades
and investing in the community,” Colbird said.
“One of our strategies is to elevate the
choices and services available in Assisted
Living,” Dixon said.
This will be a busy year at The Summit. “The Summit has so
much to offer and we’ll be working together to continue to grow
the culture in this community,” Feldbauer said.
Since becoming a part of the LifeSpire
family, residents have seen tremendous
campus improvements with more to come.
“Since joining LifeSpire’s family, we’ve really
been able to experience what it’s like to be
part of a non-profit organization. They are
making investments to make our community
better,” Dixon said.
Keyless entry systems and new cameras offer
enhanced security and peace of mind. New
awnings, fencing and landscaping along
Enterprise Drive allow first floor residents
easy outdoor access from their patios.
