Hillcrest Terrace bustles with energy each day as residents take advantage of the wide range of activities offered. From concerts to crafts and exercise classes to discussion groups, we offer more activities than any retirement community in the region.
For a detailed look at our activities, check out a sample of our monthly activity calendar.
Fun-Filled Activities
Whatever a residents interests, there is plenty to do at Hillcrest Terrace. Begin the day with an exercise class or enjoy a walk around the tree-lined property. Participate in our book group or current events forum, or try your hand at bridge or canasta. Enjoy the camaraderie of the knitting group or work on a craft project.
Take in the sunshine on our outdoor patio or tend flowers and vegetables in your very own garden plot. Enjoy the weekly social hour and cocktails at The Coop or shoot a round of pool in our billiards room. Sing with the Hillcrest chorus or enjoy a weekly movie or concert. The days are filled with enjoyable activities and heart-warming companionship.
Local Entertainment
The Manchester area provides many additional activities to choose from. In the heart of the city is the nationally acclaimed Currier Museum of Art and the Verizon Wireless Arena, which attracts nationally known entertainment and is the home of the Manchester Monarchs professional hockey team. Downtown's Palace Theatre and nearby St. Anselm College's Dana Center host performances by local and nationally recognized theater groups, symphony orchestras, operas and other entertainment groups.
Exercise Classes
Exercise classes are offered in our activity room most weekdays for a range of interests. Classes include gentle yoga, chair exercises and exercise equipment instruction and more.
Craft Classes
Creativity abounds in the large craft room that is filled with craft supplies of every kind. Residents can work on their own or take part in an organized craft project. From painting, stenciling and decoupage to calligraphy and beads, the craft room is a hub of activity.
Day Trips
Each week, residents can board our bus for an excursion to some place fun. Our exciting day trips include theatre performances, concerts, regional craft fairs, lake cruises, garden and foliage tours, Boston museums, seacoast visits and other great destinations. One day each week, residents can take part in our Lunch or Dinner on the Town trip, which includes a cultural event and lunch and/or dinner out. A fee is required for some trips.
Hillcrest Terrace Fairs
A highlight of the fall is the Hillcrest Fair, a festive event that features food, games, entertainment and a raffle, as well as a bake sale and yard sale. Family and friends of residents are invited to come join the fun.
Each December at the Hillcrest Craft Fair, residents sell handmade items made on their own or as a project in the craft room.
