Review for Capital City Village, Austin, TX, USA
I joined CCV shortly after my husband died and benefited from a widow support group. Gradually I participated in some of the many social activities, meeting new friends as well as ones I have known from other places. The monthly domino gathering in a couple's home gives me laughter and hopefully keeps my brain active! I usually go to the monthly movie group since it is more fun than sitting by yourself. When I sold my home to move to a duplex with no yard maintenance, volunteers starting showing up or calling to help me pack, moved all my many heavy pot plants, hung pictures, shades, etc. that I couldn't reach without a ladder. A variety of activities are offered every month, many that have programs on health and other ways to continue to stay involved and active while remaining independent in my own residence. Car pools are available if needed and for those who don't drive, volunteers will take them not only to doctor appts. but just to go shopping or to the beauty shop.
