Celebration
Gazing across the full sweep of 2014, I am struck by the good that was
accomplished - much of it preparatory for more to come. At the center stands
the creation of a plan required to ready Arbor Acres for the renovation of the
facility that serves residents who require skilled nursing care. The vision for
this project traces to work begun in 2013 and continued through last year and
forward into 2015. The rock we pushed so faithfully the whole of last year at
last is rolling.
The Essential Promise Campaign launched in 2014 to generate financial
support for the renovation of the skilled nursing facility within Fitzgerald
represents enormous work on the part of staff and volunteers. Dek Driscoll
and resident Bill Ball are chairing the effort. In April of 2014, when Betty and
Bob Strickland committed $1 million to the campaign, hope soared. Their lead gift supplied sufficient energy to the campaign that by year-end the
Board would increase its goal from the original $3 million to the present $3.5 million. In honor of the Strickland’s generosity, the Board chose to name
the renovated residence Strickland Place at Fitzgerald. Gifts to the campaign
have arrived in all sizes - a steady attestation to the philanthropic spirit and
caring of residents, and the wider circle of Arbor Acres’ friends.
In 2014, the Board created The Copey Hanes
Garden as a lush reminder of one of Arbor Acres’
early benefactors and dearest friends. Additionally,
this year saw the opening of The Professional
Arts Gallery honoring all Arbor Acres employees.
Artists, we call them. With its photographs and
commissioned painting of Artists in wide ranging
professions, the Gallery encourages all who work
here to exercise the God-given capacity to deliver
beauty to the lives of others. Lastly, throughout
David Piner
2014, over forty leaders from all Departments and
President
organizational levels participated in Arbor Acres’
first Leadership Arts Academy. The future will demand great leaders. This
year Arbor Acres began investing in its own.
In 2014 Arbor Acres was challenged to serve the high level of financial
need among residents, which this year far exceeded available financial
assistance income. By year-end the cost of providing financial assistance
had exceeded the revenue by over $400,000. Regardless of success in
improving the flow of charitable gifts, Arbor Acres was forced to use finite
reserves to offset this loss. Returning the financial assistance program to
healthier balance, without compromise to the mission, remains a foremost
goal of 2015.
Beauty flourished at Arbor Acres in 2014. It manifest in lives touched,
generous resident giving, excellent governance by an engaged Board of
Directors, hours of volunteer service, and tasks performed by true artists in every professional department. For thirty-five years, since March 3,
1980, residents, and those dedicated to their well-being, have danced this
dance of extraordinary caring and mutual support. Of the many beauties
that abound in any year, this exquisite thirty-five year-old waltz may be the loveliest of all.
With best wishes and LOVE,
Fitzgerald Renovations
After thirty years of continuous
service the time to renovate the
skilled nursing care facility, now
known as Strickland Place, has
come. Updates and upgrades
have occurred over the years, but
never has the building received the
substantial makeover planned for it
now. It is a massive undertaking financially and logistically. It is also
essential if the building is to serve
successfully for future generations.
The renovation involves the
following:
• Replacement of heating and
air-conditioning, wiring, plumbing,
and life-safety and communication
systems. Fully two-thirds of the total $11,250,000 cost will be
incurred to bring the building up to current standards of efficiency
and performance.
• Construction of five new resident
rooms, a response to pressing
needs in the community and to
prepare Arbor Acres for anticipated
future demand.
• Total reconstruction of the interior
of one of the original residential
wings to replace old rooms adjoined
by shared half-baths, with ten up-todate private rooms each with a full
bathroom. These rooms, along with
the five newly constructed rooms,
plus three long-vacated rooms
which have now been relicensed for
use, will increase Arbor Acres total
licensed skilled nursing bed capacity
from 65 to 83.
• Elimination of interior walls
in public areas to enhance the
openness and the ability of residents
to access views to the out- of-doors.
• An accessible and upgraded
outdoor garden in the open space
formed by the adjoining of existing
wings of the building.
• Interior landscaping and water
features to bring nature inside and to create a park-like environment.
• A new café for enjoyment of
casual visits with friends and family.
• Enlarged windows in all rooms
to invite light and nature into each
resident’s home.
• A newly constructed, greatly
enlarged and beautifully appointed
Beauty Salon
• The Long Chapel and meditation
garden for worship and private
contemplation.
• Relocation of staff work areas to improve operational efficiency and to bring staff closer to the
residents they serve.
• Open dining areas with display
counters so that when possible
residents can self-select their meals.
• Activity kitchens that are easily accessible and that will supply enticing aromas to stimulate appetites.
• A shop, known as Phoebe’s,
where residents can purchase
cards and gifts, or simply browse
and enjoy the look and feel of
the merchandise (shopping is
secondary to serving the senses
including the sense of normalcy).
• Large video screens that will
become technological windows to
the wider world. Imagine spending a relaxing day watching ocean
waves roll, the eagles tending their
young, or the giraffes loping across
the Savannah.
This is the new Strickland Place
at Fitzgerald - a place of beauty,
vitality, and expanded possibilities.
Colors will be vibrant, textures will
be lush, sights and scents will be
stimulating, and residents and their
families will be at the center of it
all. The beauty of the environment
matters only to the extent that
residents also experience care
that is beautiful, food that delights,
and possibilities that enrich life for
them and for their loved ones. This
is the vision that is unfolding now
and that will continue to unfold until
the project is completed in June of 2016. Getting there will be exciting.
This long-awaited transformation for the frailest of AA residents will be beautiful.

THE HERITAGE SOCIETY
At the heart of Arbor Acres’ mission lies a commitment to serve those living here with care, kindness, and love.
Ensuring the continuation of a place where each resident has the opportunity for an enhanced quality of life rests
upon the support of many people. The Heritage Society, created by the Board of Directors almost two decades ago,
represents 124 individuals and families who have made a commitment to Arbor Acres in one of three ways:
~ Through their estate plans. Such gifts can be made through wills, charitable trusts, annuities or life insurance.
~ Through the creation of a Named Fund within the Financial Assistance Endowment Fund.
~ Through lifetime giving of $100,000 or more.

Arborview
To Everything, There is a Season...
It’s known as Arborview, a
name that evokes vistas of beauty
enlivened by gentle breezes. The
coined term was ascribed two years
ago to the portion of Fitzgerald that
serves residents with dementia.
Home to approximately thirty
residents, Arborview manifests
daily the mission captured in the
Mission Statement: “Through
excellence, innovation, caring
and beauty, Arbor Acres
cultivates community, comfort
and well-being for senior adults.”
More than five million Americans
live with Alzheimer’s Disease. Care for these millions has been
labeled the most expensive in the
world. This cost will only escalate
as the baby boomers age, tripling
by the year 2050.
Arbor Acres embraces these
goals for all its memory impaired
residents in Arborview: (1)
to enable them to maintain
solidly their quality of life, (2)
to maximize their capacities to
function autonomously, (3) to
assure their safety, (4) to enhance
their cognition, and to respond
compassionately to mood and
behavior, and (5) to promote social
engagement essential to the
thriving of all human beings.
The renovation of Strickland
Place, the portion of Fitzgerald
that serves residents who require
skilled nursing, will expand also the
life-enriching possibilities available
to residents of Arborview. They
will be provided support in their
{6}
exploration of Strickland Place
which will open for them new
things to see, new social settings,
a place for browsing (the Gift Shop
known as Phoebe’s), new dining
experiences, and a place to sip
wine with friends. Mostly, they will
discover in the company of caring
staff expanded opportunities to
enjoy nature’s beauty with people
they recognize and trust.
Daily life in Arborview reflects
Arbor Acres’ highest commitment:
to reach deeply into those least
able to express themselves to
discover their hidden preferences
and how best to touch their hearts
and souls. Arborview exists at
the frontier of this mission. It is
the place where care is crafted
uniquely one resident at a time,
where words matter less than
feelings, and where all are enabled
to achieve personally their highest
possible experience of well-being.
And so it is in 2015 at Arbor
Acres. Springtime is bringing its
colors of green to our trees and
grasses and bright yellow and red to
the flowering plants. However, other,
not so seasonal changes, are also
presenting themselves around our campus.
Have you noticed workers in
hard hats carrying rolls of plans
and heavy equipment? Have you
gone for a visit to a friend’s room in
Strickland Place at Fitzgerald only
to find that your friend has moved to
another hallway room? Perhaps you
have noticed the excitement on the
faces of staff and Board members
as they eagerly explain the purpose
of this increased activity.
The portion of Fitzgerald Health
Care Center that serves residents
who require skilled nursing, now
known as Strickland Place at
Fitzgerald, is a 30-year-old structure
that is home to 65 residents. In
February 2015 the Board of Arbor
Acres approved an expenditure of
$11.25 million to give this hallowed
space a much-needed renovation.
The completed project will be
beautiful, and it will allow 18 more
skilled beds to be available to those
residents who require extra care.
In addition to aesthetic changes,
the renovation will also address
important, necessary updates to
the heating, air conditioning, and
sprinkler systems. Improved dining
options for residents and family
members, a new beauty shop, and
Victoria
P. Hunt
Chair,
Board of
Directors
two TV projection screens will add
to the quality of life for residents,
family, and staff.
Families have wisely questioned
staffing changes that will be
required for additional residents.
Kathy Gwyn has recently assumed
a new role of Vice President of
Health Services. She and her team
know the importance of a welltrained and motivated staff. Under
Kathy Gwyn’s watch, “The Essential
Promise,” our capital campaign
slogan, represents not only the
renovation of Strickland Place at
Fitzgerald, but also the care that will
be provided for the residents who
are at home there.
Join us in our excitement for
Arbor Acres as we bring this
newly renovated facility on line.
We are indeed fortunate to have
choices such as Strickland Place
at Fitzgerald on our campus and
in our community. As 2015 Board
Chair I am proud of the work being
accomplished at Arbor Acres, which
will benefit our current and future
residents. I am also thankful for
each of you.

Always on Call
Drex, one of Arbor Acres’ newer
employees, works hours much like
those of his human counterparts.
As a trained service dog (which is
different from a therapy dog), Drex
must put in 40/hours per week to
retain his right to work at Arbor Acres.
With the hiring late in 2014 of
Hannah Jessup as Director of
Arborview, Arbor Acres secured a two
for one package deal. Drex was the
other half of this remarkable package.
Hannah holds vast responsibilities.
Within Arborview she oversees
nursing, recreation, dining,
housekeeping and the sustaining of a
way of life shaped by each resident’s
preferences. With thirty residents all
requiring individualized attention and
care, the challenge is great. Hannah,
with Drex’s help, is up to it.
Prior to coming to Arbor Acres,
Hannah applied for and received
a service dog from Canine
Companions for Independence. She
spent two weeks at CCI in intensive
training to make sure the match
between owner and dog worked.
Hannah believes it is a match made
in heaven. Drex appears to agree but
has remained silent on the matter.
Drex helps Arborview residents
maintain their cognitive abilities,
strengthen their fine and gross motor
skills, widen their range of motion,
focus their attention, and enjoy
improved socialization.
Drex, Resident Service Dog
He assists with activities of
daily living and provides leisure
opportunities for residents. Hannah
reports, “Drex can open and hold
doors, pick up items off the floor, and pass a ball!”
Hannah summarizes Drex’s
contribution this way: “I feel that Drex
not only helps improve residents’
feelings of independence, but also
gives them a better quality of life.”
Arbor Acres feels the same way
about Hannah.

Tea Time at Arbor Acres
Just one of the many activities keeping
our residents in step with living life fully
Afternoon tea is so much more
than a delicious beverage, or a hot
drink with many health benefits.
It is the essence of hospitality,
providing nourishment, creating
comfort while putting all at ease.
When we gather together with
others something essential
happens. Thoughts gravitate
toward other’s welfare. In this
process we can feel united with
others, connected through the time shared over tea.
At 4:00 pm on the second and
fourth Wednesdays of every
month, residents can enjoy a
selection of fine teas, wonderful
biscuits and other edibles in an
{ 10 }
atmosphere comparable to that
found in the heart of England.
A beautiful selection of teas
is presented along with an
assortment of nibbles that change
monthly. An array of fine tea cups
and small plates accompany the
tea cart. These pieces of china
have been collected over the years
and each resident delights in their
chosen pattern.
It all sounds so simple and yet
carries significant meaning for
the soul. The act of opening the
heart and sharing company with
others touches the essence of
humanness.

Art, Both
Fine and Fun
Winston-Salem is the City of Arts
and Innovation and Arbor Acres is
doing its part to uphold the brand.
We relish the Arts, both within and beyond the boundaries of the campus. Many residents are
patrons of the Piedmont Symphony,
Winston-Salem Chorale, Reynolda
House Museum, Piedmont Opera,
Piedmont Craftsmen, Triad Stage
(and other local theaters), and the
arts at the four universities located in Winston-Salem.
Tom Ogburn, renowned sculptor,
teaches at Arbor Acres regularly.
Residents learn to sculpt in clay, a
creative activity that also exercises
the hands in ways helpful to those
who suffer the inevitable stiffening
of joints. Steven Dunn, a resident
and a popular Winston-Salem artist,
teaches water color and oil painting
classes for residents twice weekly.
The artists’ studio at Arbor Acres
provides a light and accommodating
setting where residents can work at
their leisure without the fuss of having
to put their paint and equipment
away. Some in Steven’s class are
discovering for the first time both their interest in and talent for painting.
The residents’ Live and Learn
Committee strives to offer
programming that appeals to the
residents artistic tastes and interests.
Recent programs taught by Dale
Pollock, former Dean of the School
of Filmmaking at the University of
North Carolina School of the Arts,
focused on the art of filmmaking. In
the past the Committee has brought
to campus significant theatrical
productions, including Barter
Theater’s staging of the play 1000
Cranes.
Walking the corridors of Arbor
Acres and finding throughout the
campus the fine artwork contained
in the growing Arbor Acres’ Art
Collection engages
residents and visitors
in a long conversation
with a wide range of
visual art. This sets
the standard for the
whole of life at Arbor
Acres - life that is rich
with opportunities for
creative expression and
for the enjoyment of art
that engages the soul.

Extraordinary People
Here at Arbor Acres, we have
no shortage of active, generous
volunteers – extraordinary people
doing extraordinary things that truly
enhance the lives of their friends
and neighbors every day. Thanks
to volunteers, newcomers to our
campus are welcomed warmly as
they become part of our community.
Thanks to volunteers, we have
beautiful gardens and resident
bluebirds, ducks and geese to enjoy.
Thanks to volunteers, our residents
enjoy opportunities off campus
without transportation challenges.
Thanks to volunteers, we keep current
on campus events via the library,
bulletin boards, publications and the
marquees. Thanks to volunteers,
we proudly support the greater
community via efforts on behalf of
Meals on Wheels, Crisis Control and
other agencies that address hunger
and other community needs. Thanks
to volunteers, we have musical
performance groups, and music
during our worship services and in
our lobbies. Thanks to volunteers,
our residents enjoy self-determination
via the Resident Council and sage
{ 14 }
governance through the members
of our Board of Directors. Thanks
to volunteers, our most challenged
and dependent residents are read
to, visited, and able to participate
in community activities. Thanks to
volunteers, The Village Shop donated
nearly $24,000 to the Resident
Assistance Fund last year. Thanks
to volunteers, we are learning the
Life Stories of our neighbors and
enriching our minds through the Live and Learn series.
Every year, resident and community
volunteers donate hundreds of hours
within our community. In many ways,
this number is insignificant because
serving is always done with a smile
and a loving heart. None seeks
rewards or accolades. People come
forward because it is what we do. It is who we are. It is part of the
artistry of Arbor Acres.
“No one is more cherished in this world than
someone who lightens the burden of another.
Volunteers often don’t necessarily have the time;
they just have the heart. Thank you.”
Leslie H. McCraw, Recreational Arts
Coordinator for Licensed Communities

Life is Symbolic.
Start Interpreting.
The other day I came across a powerful
phrase: “Life is symbolic. Start interpreting.”
My first thoughts traveled to The Essential
Promise Campaign to renovate Fitzgerald, and
how the campaign is intended to make possible
a new interpretation of life for residents who
require skilled nursing care. When first built 30
years ago, Fitzgerald was rich with symbols
supporting the belief that life in a licensed
nursing facility is all about serving clinical needs.
Nursing stations were gigantic, floors were
linoleum and everything from signage to chart
racks symbolized “hospital.”
Thankfully, definitions of quality of life for
residents in Fitzgerald have evolved. Floors are
now carpeted, the SPA replaced central bathing

and nursing stations have shrunk to the scale
of residential furniture. All of these changes are
improvements, but we believe there is still more
to do. We want to fill Fitzgerald with greater
symbols of life.
Through The Essential Promise Campaign,
Strickland Place, the area within Fitzgerald
that serves those who require skilled nursing
care, will be re-interpreted as a residence for
those living there. The planned updates include
gardens, water features and interior trees,
space for worship and contemplation and, most
important of all, improvements that will foster
even higher levels of individualized care.
The addition of 18 newly licensed beds is itself
a symbol of growing demand from expanding
numbers of seniors. Arbor Acres mission must
rise to meet increasing needs among residents
and within the community at large.
We believe the residents of Strickland Place
deserve the fullness of life’s embrace. We
believe it is important to bring nature’s serenity
and balance into this vital place of residence.
We believe the families of residents who require
expert care should find joy and peace when
visiting in their loved one’s home.
Join in manifesting these beliefs by helping
Arbor Acres fill Strickland Place with rich
symbols of hope. Support the Essential Promise Campaign. Your gift, itself a symbol of hope, is needed.

Setting the Table in Strickland Place
The body requires nourishment. The soul requires
dining. Except when suffering traumatic deprivation,
human beings never eat just to live. We require meals
seasoned with meaning, comfort, and companionship.
The experience is more vital than the calories alone.
Since childhood our lives have been shaped around
togetherness at the table. When meals become dreary
and lose their social purpose, appetite declines, and joy evaporates.
Arbor Acres was a pioneer in the transformation of
the clinical experience once referred to as “feeding”
into an experience modeled on dining in one’s home.
When Fitzgerald Health Center opened in 1985, it
offered residents waited table service and assured that
the provision of required assistance during mealtime
occurred discretely. Those helping residents with their
dining were seated alongside them rather than standing
over them. That change alone brought greater normalcy
to the experience of each resident’s daily dining.
With the renovation of the Strickland Place dining
rooms, and the opening of the Carom Café (named
for residents Cama and Robert Merritt), dining will
{ 20 }
ascend to new heights. The dining rooms are open to
and contiguous with the community cores returning to
residents the privilege of coming to the table when they
choose to come, rather than when doors are opened.
The openness of the space will assure that the aromas
of the food reach the residents in order to stimulate
their appetites at meal time. Well-prepared food will
be presented on a serving line allowing residents
who are able to select their meals personally. Family
members who want to join their loved ones for meals
will be welcomed and offered well-set tables with comfortable seating.
Opening in June of 2016, the Carom Café will provide
residents and guests an alternative setting for light
catered meals. Additionally the Café will offer between
meal refreshments and the long-awaited opportunity for
residents and their loved ones to share a nice glass of
wine or a nibble in the late afternoon or early evening.
Based on the highly successful Alibi Café in Asbury
Place, the Carom Café promises to be a gathering place
for friends, for singing, and for the savoring of frozen
yogurt. Families and friends, please join us!

2014 Financial Highlights Review
Calendar year 2014 was a positive year financially for Arbor
Acres. The year generated a
$2,498,000 increase in net assets
which now total $45,071,706
(38% of the total balance sheet).
The majority of this increase stems
from the successful launch of the
capital campaign for the renovation of
Fitzgerald. The Financial Assistance
Endowment Fund increased as well
and now totals $13,390,000.
Revenues received in 2014
exceeded costs for serving residents
by a scant $39,000. This narrow
margin, were it to be repeated year
after year, would prove insufficient
to permit accumulation of reserves
required to meet long-term repair and replacement needs. Accordingly, the Board and staff are working
diligently to make expense and
revenue adjustments calculated
to improve overall results. On the
positive side of the ledger, campus
wide occupancy as of year-end was
a very healthy 94.1%.
Total revenues excluding the capital
campaign receipts were $661,000
over budget. As of December 31,
2014, gifts and pledges to the
Capital Campaign totaled $2,877,613.
Unrestricted contributions exceeded
budget by $179,000.

An Abundance of Love
Before year-end, the residents
of Strickland Place at Fitzgerald
will be receiving salon services in
a newly appointed space, bright
with art, light, and the streaming
of nature through an expansive
window. The salon experience is
always about more than hair and
nails. It is about feeling lovely, the
most exquisite of sensations.
The new salon, named after
Margaret Nicholson, honors a
twenty year resident of Arbor
Acres, whose relationship to our
community goes back twentyseven years to 1986 when her
mother, Annie Howard, became
one of the early residents of
Fitzgerald Health Center. A
singular font of energy and ideas,
Margaret has made it her life’s
mission to share love with those
around her. She has done this
by motivating groups to provide
Christmas remembrances
to every resident. A talented
seamstress, Margaret has
made and donated countless
lap robes using fabric given to
Arbor Acres as a result of her
personal advocacy. The story
of Margaret’s service to her
neighbors is epic. Bright of mind
and spirit, Margaret remains
indefatigable. The beauty of
her life will continue perpetually
through the salon named in her honor.
The notion of naming the
Nicholson Salon for one of
Arbor Acres most beloved
residents and volunteers came
from an anonymous donor,
also a resident, who saw the
potential to serve both those
living in Strickland Place and
Margaret through a single act of
generosity. Gifts made solely to
benefit and shine light on others
come from a refined spirit of
philanthropy. This particular gift,
emerging from beauty, honors a
beautiful life through the naming
of a space dedicated to beauty’s
creation.
That is an abundance of love
well worth celebrating.
