As a lifelong resident of Virginia Beach, I had always wanted to live on the water, but without the responsibilities of home ownership, maintenance, and fear of storms and possible damage and isolation caused by them.

Westminster Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay (WCCB) had always been in my "Planning for future Retirement" possibilities file. A visit to the campus proved there are Bay views and access to the Beach in abundance, but there was also a community vitality and friendliness that greet you as you enter the building and navigate the campus.

Deciding to move to WCCB in 2011 was one of the easiest and most rapid decisions that I have ever made and one that I have never regretted. The array of amenities, activities, resources and opportunities for self, life and community involvement and improvement is amazing here. For the convenience of residents and staff, there is a bank branch, a pharmacy, a gift shop, a chapel, a fitness center with machines and a group exercise studio. There is a fully staffed clinic with Primary Care Providers and visiting Specialists including a Dentist as well as a beauty salon. There are even scheduled visits from the Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles for residents and staff. Imagine being able to renew your Drivers License or take care of other driving needs without having to make a visit to the local DMV!

Westminster Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay provides opportunities and resources in all aspects of a well-rounded life: spiritual, educational (mental), physical, social (emotional), medical, cultural and leisure. Its never too early to start your "Planning for the Future File" as I did several years ago; be sure to take a look at WCCB, you'll be glad you did!
