Butterfield LIFE may not be reproduced in whole or in part without permission from the publisher. Butterfield LIFE is published by Butterfield Trail Village. Contents © 2021. All rights reserved. Produced by DOXA / VANTAGE www.doxavantage.com I am reminded of the gift of perspective that is gained from missing something valuable and then experiencing the happiness of its return. As we have moved toward cautiously resuming access to many of the amenities, programs and activities Butterfield is well known for, it has been a true pleasure to observe what feels like a reawakening of our campus.
Springtime always brings about invigoration, but it is clear our residents and staff are feeling the extra warmth and energy that comes from re-engaging with friends and returning to enjoyable pastimes. The Village is again buzzing and our calendar of events is filling up with excursions, fitness and art classes, live music and dining, happy hours and so much more.
In this issue, we celebrate not only a return to a present and future filled with many of the things our residents love – we also are taking a moment to look back at those who have helped build Butterfield’s stellar reputation.
Our cover story is about the surprising number of Butterfield residents with family members who have also called the Village home since the first apartments became available in 1986. We know how special it is for life at Butterfield to be part of an ongoing legacy among parents, children and extended family. Nobody knows our culture and environment better than those who have spent years visiting loved ones on campus, and we are truly honored when those guests choose to become part of our community, too.
We will introduce you to resident Sara Brown in the Newcomer Q&A – and look inside the beautifully appointed apartment of Barbara Counce. You’ll also meet Connor Peterson, a member of the horticulture team responsible for keeping our 44-acre grounds and green spaces healthy and beautiful.
We believe your mouth will water over Chef Memo Vaca’s shopping list for the perfect gourmet picnic and his latest refreshing cocktail recipe, and the article about Fitness & Wellness Director Jennifer Neill’s Five Essentials will keep you moving to burn off any extra calories.
Here’s to your health, and may the beginnings of your summer season ahead be filled with fun!
