Personalizing the Active Adult Lifestyle with The Orchards Group
Are you looking for an active adult lifestyle complete with plenty of events and social activities to keep you busy? Well, The Orchards Group has two perfect communities for you! The Orchards of Brannon Oak Farm and The Orchards of East Cherokee are unique in the world of active adult communities, as homeowners have the option to customize and create activities and events that fit their perfect lifestyle.
At The Orchards Group communities, homeowners organize most activities and events that occur. Involving homeowners in planning events helps to create a larger sense of community, and many of the events planned by residents have proven to be more successful than those that have been organized by a social director.
Residents at The Orchards of East Cherokee, located in Hickory Flat, have been actively involved in the scheduling of events and activities, and as the community has grown, so have the events. Their monthly Meet and Greet dinner has expanded from being held once a month to three times per month, and they have created numerous new social groups and events that include Saturday night themed parties, men’s coffee gatherings, ladies lunch outings, book club and game days.

Mitch Block, sales and marketing director for The Orchards Group, explains why it is so important to allow homeowners to personalize their lifestyle. “As more people purchase homes and move in to the communities, they bring with them more and more personal interests,” Block says. “Because of this, we are seeing a growing use of the clubhouse, which is exactly the intention. Hopefully, we will continue to see new groups created, such as card groups or even movie groups.”
