With the 75+ population projected to double in 20 years’ time, it’s more important than ever to choose a retirement village that is equipped to support you when you’re fully independent as well as if you need care.

That’s why Ryman villages plan ahead by offering independent living in apartments and townhouses, assisted living in serviced apartments, resthome care and, in most villages, hospital and specialist dementia care.

We offer a higher ratio of care in our villages so that if your needs change, you have priority access to our care centres.

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Button

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Meet Button.

"Hey, I'm Button. I am a very handsome and lovable boy. I am a huge love bug and absolutely adore everyone that I meet. I would love to go to my new home where there is someone around for most parts of the day as I thrive on companionship and don't really like being by … View more
Meet Button.

"Hey, I'm Button. I am a very handsome and lovable boy. I am a huge love bug and absolutely adore everyone that I meet. I would love to go to my new home where there is someone around for most parts of the day as I thrive on companionship and don't really like being by myself. I love playing with my toys and chasing them around my room. I would be okay going to a home with young children as they will be able to play with me, but they should know when to give me time and space to myself when I need it, and of course to be respectful of me. I would also be okay going to a home with another cat as I also really love feline companionship just as much as my humans. I would also be okay going to a home that has a calm and cat friendly dog. I do have a medical waiver that my new family will need to be made aware of but we can chat about this when you meet me."

Greetings and Salutations -

This Friday, a 9 piece Bruce Springsteen tribute band will be playing at the Opera House at 7:30. The 3 hour show will feature all the songs from Bruce's first album, "Born to Run".

I was fortunate to have seen Bruce in Miami just after the album's release. It was one of the greatest concerts that I have ever witnessed. While no one except those from New Jersey had heard of him, everyone from the 2,500+ audience stood up from the first song and remained that way through the show. If Friday's band is half as good, it will be a show you will never forget.

I am going and have 2 extra tickets. Each is $70. You may purchase them either together or separately. If you are interested, please let me know through the website ASAP.

Best wishes - Michael
