The Westminster Canterbury Lifestyle

The good life. Your life. It's time to leave your cares behind, and let Westminster Canterbury handle the details of everyday living.

Relax in one of our comfortable corners. Grow a garden. Take a class in painting with watercolor. Ready to exercise? Head to our state-of-the-art Wellness Center. Join a water aerobics class in our heated pool. Build up your strength on the workout equipment.

Enjoy a manicure in the beauty salon. Learn about far-away places at one of the many travelogues offered by fellow residents. Or offer a travelogue of your own. If you love music, join the Westminster Canterbury Singers or our male vocal group, the Croakers. Or tickle the ivories of our grand piano. Stroll to the Commons and take in a movie—with a side of fresh popcorn.

If you can hammer a nail, water a plant, use a computer, manage a budget, play a game, read a book or have a friendly pet, perhaps you'll find now is the time to volunteer. We have numerous committees on which your ideas are welcome and residents who would enjoy the pleasure your company.

This has made a difference in our quality of life
that we can continue to enjoy.

At mealtime, choose among our four dining venues: the Westminster Canterbury Dining Room, the Canterbury Café, one of several Private dining Rooms, or our newest addition, the James River Grille. Our executive chef prepares meals inspired by the best offerings in the daily marketplace, including fresh produce and organic products. There are special dining events throughout the year, including our ever-popular luau, Mardi gras, barbecue nights, Wii Tournaments, Oktoberfest and New Year's Eve celebration.

As much as there is to do on campus, we're just around the corner from golf courses, country clubs, shopping centers, restaurants and colleges. Plus, our social calendar is full of outings, with visits to historic sites, the symphony, local festivals and scenic places.

At Westminster Canterbury, you'll never lack for fellowship or companionship. Or want for something to do. Yet, here, on our expansive campus, you can always find quiet spaces for those private moments.

It's time for the good life. It's time to join Westminster Canterbury and experience Life Refreshed.
