NOV + DEC 2020
From the CEO This year has certainly been a challenging one for all of us. Way of life at Butterfield Trail Village has seen some dramatic changes as we have coped with this terrible virus. Residents and their families have shown great courage and made significant sacrifices. Our residents have endured many difficulties over the course of this year, and I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through the challenges of the pandemic. Despite everything, our Village team has stepped up to take on a number of significant new projects this year – ever committed to ensuring Butterfield continues to be the premier retirement community in the region. Anyone who has passed Butterfield along Old Missouri Road has likely noticed a great deal of red dirt. That’s because we are constructing a new paved lot to offer a better parking environment for our employees, and a much-needed overflow parking option for the times we host special activities and events that draw visitors. I’m excited to share that this new paved lot will free up the old gravel parking area, allowing us to build a new Village Home duplex and enthusiastically welcome additional residents to the neighborhood. Weather willing, the new paved lot will be finished by December, and we will break ground on the Village Home shortly thereafter. As we approach the holidays and the end of such a memorable year, it’s important to note that we may have to mark occasions somewhat differently than in the past – yet the meaning behind our celebrations remains the same. The season of giving thanks and planning gifts offers us the chance to be generous and honor things that matter. I sincerely hope you remember the Butterfield Trail Village Foundation as you make your year-end gifts, with the knowledge that your generosity provides continuous improvement of programs and services for residents and our beautiful campus. On behalf of all of us at Butterfield, I wish you and your loved ones a healthy, joyful holiday season.
