Fall Fun… The Glenview and Naples Relish in All That Autumn Has to Offer

Seasonal residents of Naples, Pelican Bay, and The Glenview — some of whom headed up North to leave Florida’s summer temps behind — return home in early October to find the area bursting with recreation, entertainment, and unique activities for seniors during the fall and winter seasons.

Homeowners at The Glenview at Pelican Bay enjoy a wealth of onsite services, resort-inspired amenities, and activities — inside and out, on- and off-campus. A full-time activities director coordinates a variety of recreational programs and social activities. Here’s just an idea of how you might wile away the hours during the fall and winter months at The Glenview:

  • Educational seminars, expert panels, informational workshops, and healthcare updates
  • Weekly cocktail parties with live musical entertainment
  • Seasonal parties and celebrations
  • Fitness classes, including water aerobics in a heated pool, surrounded by a newly remodeled sun deck and spa
  • Social and informational excursions into the surrounding Naples community
  • Card games and book clubs

Have we captured your attention yet? If not, activities director Marilyn McGinty says the following special fall events are always popular with The Glenview residents:

The Glenview’s Annual Carpet Croquet Tournament. Professional, serious, and FUN! Even a “draw” for folks visiting the Naples area.

A Red, White, and Blue Veterans Day. A theatrical and musical tribute held annually in honor of The Glenview veterans.

LIVE Musical Entertainment during cocktail hour — three evenings a month!

Opportunities for Fun in and Around Pelican Bay and Naples

Ask The Glenview residents and they’re bound to say the Pelican Bay and Naples area is bursting with small-town warmth and charm and filled with the vibrancy and cultural wealth of a big city throughout the year — but especially in fall and winter!

Pelican Bay is surrounded by 88 acres of parks, recreation areas, and lush tropical flora. It’s celebrated for its unrivaled amenities including exclusive-access beaches, world-class fitness and wellness facilities, four beach restaurants, and opportunities for outdoor recreation such as golf, tennis, biking, canoeing, kayaking, sailing, fishing, and strolling leisurely on more than three miles of pristine white-sand beaches. Add to these outdoor amenities chic shopping districts, fine arts opportunities, great dining, and lively clubs, and you’ll find the area unlike any other senior living enclave in Florida.

Homeowners at The Glenview, like other residents on Pelican Bay, are automatically members of the Pelican Bay Foundation allowing them access to all the amenities mentioned above, as well as private membership to Club Pelican Bay and Community Center — a social hub offering more fellowship, cultural and educational opportunities.

Additional activities at the Community Center include an art studio, bridge, mahjong, and chess groups. And a fitness/wellness center at the Center offers aerobics, Pilates, yoga, and spinning classes. You won’t miss a beat of your wellness routine from season to season or day to day as you choose to follow the sun to Pelican Bay and Naples.
