Activities & Outings

Make Every Day a Day to Play!

Whether you’re touring a local vineyard or enjoying an aromatic glass of Chardonnay in the comfort of your own apartment, The Commons puts play back into your day. Forget the “To Do” list and invest your time in what matters most!

Parties, classes, games, relaxing, shopping, and more!

With nearly 300 days of sunshine and all of Western Colorado at your doorstep, The Commons community, and the city of Grand Junction is a great place to have a good time! Stay involved with day trips and tours through Western Colorado’s beautiful wine country, tours through the mountainous landscape, window-shopping through Grand Junction’s historic downtown, visiting the Museum of Western Colorado or spending an evening with the talented Grand Junction Symphony Orchestra.

There are plenty of activities happening on The Commons’ campus as well. Exciting activity choices include exercise classes, painting, and so much more. Settle into the movie room to enjoy a classic movie and popcorn! Whatever you choose, you’re bound to enjoy the active senior lifestyle at The Commons.
