pression that translates “at the edge of the
river”) is a quaint and quiet community
whose small downtown area has been recog-
nized by the National Registry of Historic
Sites. At the same time, Westminster is only
a short drive to our nation’s bustling capitol
with all of its offering of arts, retail, dining
and cultural considerations. This connotes
to an array of choices and alternative in the
way of activities.
Yet, as Wing explains, Westminster
also offers a variety of activity options for
residents; from lifelong-learning classes, in-
teresting lecture series, wellness programs
that include Tai Chi and water aerobics, or
for those of more athletic prowess, the op-
portunity to participate in Northern Virgin-
ia’s popular Senior Olympics.
Residents particularly delight in the
dining options, which not only cater to the
most demanding of dietary needs, but the
most discriminating of tastes. Westminster’s
Chef Andrea McDonald-Black routinely of-
fers a repast of epicurean enticement with
signature dishes such as the Spinach and
Cheese Frittata, or Salmon Caesar Salad
with a dollop of Red Chile Caesar Dressing,
and more.
