Discover the Secret of Successtul Retirement

Similar in many ways to The Kensington, Parkwood (1
block south of Hillside Mall) has been recognized by the
Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation for innova-
tion in housing for seniors. A visit to this outstanding
facility will quickly convince you of the exceptional
quality and comfort of both the common areas and private
apartments as well as the professional calibre and
friendliness of our people.

Need transportation? Group outings and activities are
encouraged and scheduled transportation is provided for
neighbourhood shopping and social functions. There's a
medical/dental building across the road from The Kensing-
ton. The library, churches, an entertainment centre with
four cinemas and other community services are equally
convenient.

of home without the homework

At The Kensington, life is not only easier, it’s more
friendly and more fun. Here you can enjoy the best of both
worlds — the privacy and comfort of your own spacious
apartment home plus the companionship and facilities of a
full service retirement residence.

One inclusive monthly fee covers just about every-
thing you’re likely to need — private accommoda-
tion, parking, nutritious meals, snacks, utilities
and cablevision as well as maintenance, laundry
and weekly maid service.

It’s a chance to have a place of your own, to make new
friends and rediscover the pleasures of shared activities and
interests while someone else takes care of the chores.
