The Grand Parade 2026 Lead Sponsor is Aspira Brants Landing!
The GRCOA is especially grateful to Aspira Brants Landing for stepping forward as our Lead Sponsor for the Grand Parade. Their commitment to supporting older adults in our community means so much to us and plays an important role in helping us continue our work of keeping older adults connected, engaged, and informed.
At Aspira Brant’s Landing, they offer a carefree approach to retirement living, with a focus on fostering companionship and freedom while ensuring comfort, care and peace of mind.
With a range of care options, including, Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care, their philosophy centers on ‘Aging in Place’ where care options and services evolve to meet the changing needs of residents. This approach allows for continuity and support throughout their journey. Each of their programs and activities are designed to meet residents at their physical and mental stages, ensuring personalized care and enriching experiences tailored to their unique needs.
