Residents and shoppers turned out for a celebration that included tasty bites and cool drinks, and casual touring of The Grove. The Grove offers inviting choices in the University Park master plan, exclusively for residents and their guests.

Water delights include a resort pool, a lap pool, kiddie pool and spa. A shaded playground, pickleball court, a stage area, lawn areas for events and games, a firepit and a BBQ area add to The Grove's enticing venues. Nearby parks include one dog park and one with a covered play area, basketball court and lawn.

"The Grove's Grand Opening celebration was clearly a hit," said Nova homeowner Rose Arguin. "Many homeowners showed up to mingle and meet their neighbors. They also enjoyed the refreshments, and the WPG photographer and videographer doing interviews—yes, a good time was had by all!

"The clubhouse facility is beautiful, and someone is always on duty during the regular hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.," Arguin added. "The Fitness Center seems especially popular and is now open at 6 a.m. at homeowners' request so they can work out before work. People also love the pools...especially the lap pool!"
