Charbonneau’s picturesque neighbor-
hood while raising money for the Al-
zheimer’s Association. Thanks to the
generosity of residents from Spring-
Ridge and SpringRidge Court, which of-
fers assisted living services, staff, fami-
lies and the external community, over
$35,000 has been raised for Alzheimer’s
research.
Jean and Fred volunteered for this
year’s event, helping sell raffle tickets for
prizes which were graciously donated by
area businesses.
“I thought it was wonderful seeing
so many people with grandchildren
and walking clubs from the Charbon-
neau neighborhood join us,” she said.
“The event is terrific and always such
a success!”
Jean’s neighbor Candice Barnick par-
ticipated in the event and was eager to

initiative, program or event that aims to
prevent or simplify someone’s distress,
then I want to be part of it,” she said.
“I’m proud to live at SpringRidge know-
ing they take a proactive approach to
health and wellness. From educational
classes to speakers sharing advice on
brain health, residents are given the
tools needed to stay active and healthy.”
She’s participated in the Walk to Re-
member almost every year since she
moved to SpringRidge five years ago.
“I enjoy being part of the activity,” she
said. “It’s rained quite a few of the years
but once you get outside and start talk-

the greater community, you don’t really
care about the weather.”
An avid walker, she hits the pave-
ment daily to take advantage of Spring-
Ridge’s idyllic location and Mother Na-
ture. During her two or three mile stroll,
she finds it relaxing to head to the river
to see newborn ducklings waddling in
the water.
“SpringRidge creates a dynamic and
engaging environment that encourages
residents to flourish and connect with
the community at large,” said Garth

tor. “Gone are the days of a stereotypi-
cal retirement community being discon-
nected or viewed as ‘that place over
there.’ At SpringRidge, residents remain
a vital part of the Charbonneau, Wilson-
ville and greater Portland communities.
From opening our doors to local organi-
zations to providing transportation ser-
vices to area businesses, health care
professionals and cultural venues, we
ensure residents remain part of the fab-
ric of society.”

tegrated approach to support the vitali-
ty, longevity and health of residents by
offering a hospitality-centered lifestyle
