Stay Moving All Year Long
While there are many walking, hiking, and biking opportunities to be found in Westminster during the warmer months, San Marino ensures you can stay active when it’s cold with indoor options. Work on your specific health goals with guidance from a personal trainer, or participate in group fitness classes to socialize while you exercise.
Connect With Your Community
San Marino has plenty of ways to spend time with friends and make new ones right on campus. From volunteering to arts and crafts to poker games and movie nights, there are an array of social activities that allow you to have fun and make new connections.
There are also a variety of spiritual opportunities available right on campus, including religious services, meditation groups, yoga, and Bible study. These activities encourage respect for all, and allow you to engage with your community on a deep, personal level.
Off-Site Excursions
Just because the weather is cold or dreary, does not mean you have to stay cooped up in one place. San Marino Retirement Community organizes many outings in Westminster, and there are many nearby towns and cities to explore like Arvada, Thornton, Broomfield, and Denver. Get moving at the MAC Center for Active Adults, or enjoy nature while remaining indoors at the Butterfly Pavilion. Residents at San Marino can schedule complimentary transportation to shopping areas, movies, art museums, and plays, allowing seniors to enjoy all the surrounding area has to offer.

Few things brighten a cold or rainy afternoon like sharing a meal with the people you enjoy most. Our community offers a wide range of dining options with nutritious, unique, and delicious dishes. Whether you prefer elegant dining or a relaxed brunch, you’ll find something to savor — regardless of the weather outdoors.
Virtual Learning and Developing New Skills
Modern technology makes staying mentally active and socially connected easy in every season. Whether you’re watching a documentary, streaming a favorite show, or signing up for a virtual class, time indoors can be both enjoyable and fulfilling.
Online learning is a great way to support lifelong curiosity, offering endless opportunities to expand your knowledge and keep your mind stimulated through podcasts, YouTube lectures, and digital courses that cover countless subjects.
