Deana Bell, our full time program director, will keep you informed of neighborhood activities, scheduled trips, and events planned especially for you. Deana plans social events and lifelong learning seminars to expand your knowledge and enhance your awareness. Moving to a Senior community should be about enjoying more freedom, not losing it. About exploring more opportunities, not limitations. About living as you plan, not as someone else has planned your day. At The Manor, you’ll find all the amenities you will need, and choose to pay for only those you want—as you need them. Here you’ll live among interesting, likeminded friends on a lively campus and in a place you’ll be proud to call your own. At The Manor we have a full-time activity director, a gourmet chef, chauffeur for group outings and concierge services. Or you can run your own errands, shop to your hearts content, and take advantage of all the area eateries, entertainment and amenities. We’ll keep you informed of our full calendar of programs and activities, all off campus trips, seminars on health and money matters, and events planned for you. At The Manor you set the pace and follow your own interests. Pamper yourself in our salon or choose your own. Join game lovers here for bridge, bingo, canasta, pinochle, rumikub or poker nights; or head to the tables of Harrah’s Cherokee for a weekend getaway. Join the joggers, practice yoga, draw, paint and line dance. Catch a movie in our Great Room or enjoy a broadway show downtown at the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center. You’re a short hop from the interstate, the Panthers, Charlotte Checkers hockey, Bobcat basketball, and Knights baseball. With so many events, activities and attractions, your biggest decision at The Manor will be not what to do, but how possibly to do it all. The Dorchester offers internet and computer classes, full wellness programs and a workout area, swimming pool, opportunities for volunteerism and dynamic amenities. Choose from social, cultural or recreational activities like: book groups, baking classes, theater outings and shopping excursions — these are just a few of the many activities our residents enjoy. We will even build programs around your interests or help you to discover new ones. | | The fitness pavilion is a future development that will house a fitness facility, a pool, men's and women's locker rooms and a spa.
