Our Seniors Love Bus Excursions!
At Aravilla Clearwater, we prioritize your quality of life and vibrant experiences! Join us every Tuesday and Thursday at 1:45 PM for our exciting bus excursions on our fabulous Party Bus. Whether you’re craving a stroll through nature parks, a visit to scenic piers, or a delightful stop at local coffee and ice cream shops, we’ve got you covered! But that’s just the beginning! Each third week of the month, we dedicate our trips to gender-specific adventures. Gentlemen can unwind at a lively bar while the ladies can enjoy a charming outing at a tea house. But as Cindy Lauper famously said, “Girls just wanna have fun!” So, they go to the bar too. We also love to include family and friends in our adventures! To join in on the fun, simply sign up with our Activities Department. Don’t miss out on these memorable experiences—let’s explore the city together!

Resident Spotlight:
“Margaret “Peggy” W.”
We are thrilled to spotlight the incredible Margaret “Peggy” W., a cherished member of our Aravilla Family! Born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1940, Peggy’s journey began at the Immaculate Conception Academy, an all-girls Catholic school in Washington, D.C., where she graduated in 1958.
Peggy kicked off her career as an administrative assistant at the Pentagon. Driven by her aspiration to become a nun, in June 1961, she attended Le Jeanne D’Arc in New York City. In 1962, she met her husband, Bill, a New York fireman. They married in October 1965 and later moved to Florida. After dedicating years to being a homemaker, Peggy pursued her education at the University of South Florida, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Business and Office Education—graduating Summa Cum Laude with a perfect 4.0 GPA!
Peggy’s teaching journey began as a 2nd grade teacher at Cardium Angels Catholic School in Pinellas County. She later transitioned to Raymond James Financial, where she enjoyed a fulfilling career until retirement. A passionate traveler, Peggy has explored the Caribbean, Ireland, and even ventured to Israel with her church group. As a proud mother to her son, Bill Jr., and daughter-in-law, Elena, Peggy delights in her role as a grandmother to her two beautiful granddaughters, Kaitlyn and Brenna. Family is everything to her, and she loves hosting visits from family and friends, especially those from her church community. An active member of Espiritu Santo Catholic Church, Peggy has dedicated over 30 years to the choir and enjoys volunteering at her granddaughters’ school, where she shares her love for reading and music with the children. Peggy’s vibrant spirit and unwavering commitment to family and community truly make her a gem in our Aravilla Family! Be sure to say hello to her the next time you see her down at the Promenade during activities. You can’t miss her vibrant smile!
