Encore Oasis Club at FishHawk Ranch

🚒❤️ Hands-On CPR Training at the Oasis!

A big THANK YOU to Hillsborough County Fire Rescue for sending a representative out today for a hands-on CPR training class!

Our residents had the opportunity to practice chest compressions, proper hand placement, CPR techniques, and how to respond during an emergency. It was a fun, informative, and valuable learning experience for everyone who participated.

Thank you to all of our residents who joined us! ❤️👏

The Oasis was full of activity yesterday morning! From Bocce Ball and Pickleball to our wonderful Gardening Club working around the pool, it was great to see so many residents out enjoying the beautiful morning together.

What a fantastic turnout for our Oasis Luau! It was wonderful to see so many residents come together, enjoy great company, share plenty of laughs, and celebrate our vibrant community.

A special thank-you goes to everyone who helped make the luau possible. Cooking the pig was a true labor of love and required a great deal of time, preparation, teamwork, and dedication. We are especially grateful to everyone who participated in cooking the pig, decorating, setting up, serving, and cleaning up afterward. Your hard work and willingness to help made a tremendous difference!

The Oasis was filled with smiling faces, friendly neighbors, and joyful memories. Events like this could not happen without the time, effort, and support of our wonderful residents and volunteers. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening so special and memorable!

Here are a few photos I was able to capture before the festivities got underway! Once the celebration began, things quickly became wonderfully busy!

Thank you again to everyone who came out and contributed in so many ways. We hope you had as much fun celebrating as we did bringing it all together!

We were excited to welcome Insurance Educators, Inc. Martina & Travis back to the Oasis for another round of the Retirement Reality Challenge! 🏆

Our residents enjoyed an afternoon filled with laughter, interactive trivia, friendly competition, prizes, and plenty of great information about retirement, Medicare, long-term care, and estate planning. It was a fun and engaging way to learn while putting everyone’s retirement knowledge to the test! 🧠👏

THANK YOU again to Insurance Educators, Inc. Martina & Travis for returning to the Oasis and creating such an entertaining and informative experience for our residents. We truly appreciate the time, energy, refreshments, giveaways, and expertise you brought to our community.

We had another wonderful and informative afternoon at the Oasis with Dr. Landfair from Orthopaedic Medical Group of Tampa Bay, who joined us for a Lunch & Learn focused on Total Knee Replacement.

We thank you Dr. Landfair and the Orthopaedic Medical Group of Tampa Bay and team for taking the time to visit our community, share valuable information, answer our residents’ questions, and help everyone better understand what to expect before, during, and after knee replacement surgery.

Thank you again to Dr. Landfair and Orthopaedic Medical Group of Tampa Bay for spending the afternoon with us! 🦵👏📚

What a great afternoon of food, conversation, and valuable information! We would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to Twin Creeks Assisted Living & Memory Care for hosting and sponsoring such an informative Lunch & Learn for our Encore residents.

A special thank you to Chef Jerome for providing the delicious lunch—we certainly appreciate being well fed while we learn! 😊

We also want to thank our wonderful guest panel for taking the time to join us and share their knowledge and expertise:

⭐ Rebeca Zuniga – Twin Creeks Assisted Living & Memory Care
⭐ Emma Hemness – Hemness Faller Elder Law
⭐ Jessica Galarza – FirstLight Home Care
⭐ Antonio Rodriguez – Insurance Gurus

Having trusted local professionals come together to answer questions, provide helpful information, and discuss important care and planning decisions made for a very worthwhile afternoon.

And, of course, thank you to all of our Encore residents who attended! Your participation, questions, and engagement are what continue to make our Lunch & Learn programs such a success.

We had DJ Seth back at the Oasis, and what a great night it was! There was plenty of laughter, friendly competition, great music, and lots of smiles throughout the evening. ❤️

We kicked things off with three interactive games during the first hour, and everyone jumped right in and had a blast! 🎲👏

And we certainly didn’t hold back on the prizes! 😂 A couple of our lucky winners walked away with some seriously BIG prizes, including…

🚘 A BRAND-NEW DODGE RAM!
(Okay… it may have been a Hot Wheels Dodge Ram, but a new truck is a new truck! 😂)

💰 $100,000 GRAND!
(In the form of a delicious 100 Grand chocolate bar! 🍫🤣)

Then DJ Seth turned up the fun for our second hour with Sing-O-Bingo! 🎶🎤 From recognizing favorite songs and singing along to trying to score that winning BINGO, it was the perfect way to finish out the night!

A huge THANK YOU to DJ Seth for keeping everyone entertained and bringing such great energy back to the Oasis.

And, of course, thank you to all of our residents who came out, participated, laughed, sang, competed, and made the evening such a success! ❤️

What a wonderful day of creativity, laughter, and community spirit at the Oasis! Our Encore Image Committee brought residents together for a fun-filled Luau Craft Day, creating dozens of beautiful tropical flowers to help decorate for our upcoming celebration. 🌸🌺🌼

A very special thank you to the Image Committee and all of the residents who took time out of their day to lend a helping hand. Your creativity, hard work, and teamwork will help transform the Oasis into a colorful, vibrant, and festive tropical setting for everyone to enjoy!

It’s moments like these that make our community events so special—neighbors coming together, sharing laughs, and helping bring an idea to life. ❤️

🌴🌺 We can’t wait to see it all come together at our Luau Party on Monday, September 7! 🌺🌴

Mahalo to our Image Committee and all of our wonderful resident volunteers! 🤙🌺
