Mechanicsburg / Pennsylvania / United States
Bethany Village is a community of energetic people who truly care about one another. But that’s only a small part of what makes life here so inspiring, rewarding and — most of all —fun. Start your morning tending to your prize-winning tomatoes in the community garden. Meet your friends for a quick lunch at the Collegiate Café before heading off to an afternoon of fitness and laughter playing water volleyball. And don’t forget that the Front Porch Social begins at 4 p.m. There’s always something new to anticipate at Bethany Village. Snow tubing and water tubing trips, the Bethany Games, to disc or putt-putt golf on the community’s courses. And so many volunteer opportunities on and off campus. Only a few miles away, Harrisburg offers shopping, dining and cultural opportunities. The nearby Appalachian Trail is a great place to hike, while Philadelphia, Hershey, and Gettysburg are ideal outings for the grandchildren. Equally important is what you won’t be doing: home repairs, shoveling snow or mowing the grass. That gives you the time to learn to paint, attend lectures, mentor children at a local school — opportunities abound.
