John Knox Village, a senior living community in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, is abuzz with exciting developments! We’re thrilled to announce the planned construction of a brand-new clubhouse, featuring amenities designed to enhance the active and social lives of our residents.

Pickle Up Your Retirement!

Calling all pickleball enthusiasts! The new clubhouse will boast two indoor pickleball courts, providing a year-round space to enjoy this popular paddle sport. Pickleball isn’t just a fun game; it’s a fantastic way to stay active and healthy! It offers a great workout, improving hand-eye coordination, reflexes, and cardiovascular health. Plus, the social aspect of the game helps reduce stress and combat feelings of isolation.

More Than Just Games: A Community Hub

The new clubhouse won’t just be a place to work up a sweat. It will also serve as a vibrant community hub. The spacious community room will be ideal for gatherings, events, and resident-organized activities. Imagine enjoying potlucks, game nights, or gatherings with friends and neighbors in this beautiful new space.

Unwind and Relax Poolside

For those seeking some rest and relaxation, the new zero-entry swimming pool will be your summer retreat. This design allows for easy and safe access for residents of all abilities. Whether you’re looking to cool off on a hot summer day or complete your daily laps, the new pool will be the perfect spot. Plus, with ample seating, you can soak up the sun and socialize with friends.

Resident Input

Many residents expressed a desire for dedicated pickleball courts and a more accessible pool. We’re confident these new amenities will be a hit with our active community!

Construction Timeline and Location

Demolition of the existing Sun Valley Clubhouse and outdoor pool will begin after Labor Day 2024. We anticipate the new clubhouse to be open by Memorial Day weekend 2025.
