New Resident Portal Launch!

Kayleigh Fowler on March 4, 2026

We’re excited to announce that our new Resident Portal officially launched last week! This innovative platform is designed to make finding important information and updates faster, easier, and more streamlined for everyone in our community.

Six years have passed since our original portal debuted, and while it served us well, technology doesn’t stand still. It was time for an upgrade – a portal that is more intuitive, user-friendly, and interactive for both residents and staff alike.

Kya offers a central hub for:

  • Daily announcements and updates
  • Important documents, including campus policies
  • Menus from our on-campus restaurant, Seventeen51
  • Communication pieces like our on-campus newsletter
    …and much more!

We hosted a comprehensive presentation covering all aspects of the new site, with 295 residents joining us in the Auditorium and an additional 130 participating via Zoom. The turnout was fantastic, and we are thrilled to see our residents fully take advantage of this portal.

The logo, designed for the portal, unites key elements of our community into a single image. It features the Kya statue, a sacred and meaningful landmark in McGandy Park, alongside the red, orange, and yellow hues inspired by the vibrant Chihuly glass sculpture at the entrance of our main building.

Walk to End Alzheimer’s

Kayleigh Fowler on October 29, 2025

Each year, our residents and staff participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. It’s always an inspiring day- filled with hope, remembrance, and connection.

The walk is not only a chance to honor those affected by Alzheimer’s but also a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community. Each step reminds us of the strength we have when we unite for a shared purpose. From friends and families to local organizations and volunteers, everyone plays a part in creating awareness, raising funds, and offering support.

We’re grateful to be part of such a meaningful cause and to share this experience with so many caring people.

Hygiene Drive

Kayleigh Fowler on September 16, 2025

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our residents and staff, we are proud to share that our August Hygiene Drive was a resounding success! Together, we collected 15 full boxes of essential hygiene products to support the South Sound YMCA Shower Appointment Program.

Drives like this are about more than donations. They are about showing up for one another, stepping outside of our individual lives, and recognizing the power we have when we come together for a greater purpose. These opportunities remind us that giving back isn’t just a gesture – it’s an act of solidarity, empathy, and shared humanity.

Wellness Fair

Kayleigh Fowler on September 16, 2025

This year’s Wellness Fair was our biggest yet, with over 35 vendors participating and sharing valuable resources on health, fitness, nutrition, mental wellness, and more.

These events are more than just informative – they’re an essential part of supporting the well-being of our residents. By connecting directly with local providers and wellness experts, residents gain easier access to services, build relationships within the community, and are empowered to take a more active role in their own health.

Employee Picnic

Kayleigh Fowler on July 28, 2025

Our annual employee picnic has become a valued tradition – a perfect opportunity to step away from the daily routine and enjoy delicious food from our on-campus restaurant, Seventeen51. It’s a time for meaningful conversation, fun and connection that strengthens our team.

Held in our beautiful Pavilion, the picnic has a relaxed, easygoing vibe. Whether folks are catching up with someone from another department or just enjoying the fresh air, it’s always a great reminder of how special our workplace community really is.

More than just a break in the day, the picnic is a celebration of the people who make our organization such a great place to work!

        Panorama Pathways 5k

        Kayleigh Fowler on June 19, 2025

        Our annual Pathways 5k event is a celebration of wellness, community, and fun! Participants enjoy a scenic 3.1-mile walk, jog, or ride through campus, starting at the Aquatic and Fitness Center and ending at the Pavilion, with water stations along the way.

        This year’s great turnout brought together friends, families, and neighbors for a day full of excitement and connection. A highlight was the Olympia Baseball Club 12U team, who brought big energy to one of the water stations. They cheered on participants and handed out water with huge smiles.

        Whether participating, volunteering, or cheering, everyone helped make the event memorable.

        PB & Baby Wipe Drive

        Kayleigh Fowler on June 19, 2025

        During the month of May, our residents and staff joined forces to support the Thurston County Food Bank by donating much-needed essentials. Thanks to the generosity and community spirit of everyone involved, we successfully collected 265 jars of peanut butter and 290 packs of baby wipes!

        These donations will directly benefit local families, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated!

        Diner Walk

        Kayleigh Fowler on May 5, 2025

        Each month, Steve Pogge – our beloved guide for local hikes and excursions – leads residents on a fun and flavorful outing called the “Diner Walk.” This monthly event combines light exercise with the chance to sample some of the best diners across a three-county area, followed by a short, scenic walk.

        The outing captured below featured a meal at Hob Nob Diner, followed by a walk to the Wright Park Conservatory and along the Tacoma Waterfront Trail.

        Activity Fair

        Kayleigh Fowler on April 8, 2025

        Each year, the Resident Council proudly sponsors the vibrant and informative Activity Fair, an event that brings our community together in the most exciting way! It’s a chance for both current and future residents to learn more about the diverse activity and hobby groups available to them here at Panorama. This year, over 70 groups were represented, each offering something special to spark passion and connection.

        The fair is a place where people can discover new interests, forge friendships, and truly feel the sense of belonging that our community is built on. It’s a celebration of the countless opportunities available and a powerful reminder of how much we can grow and thrive together!
