For people who love to enjoy social activities both at home and around the region, Avalon Village Retirement Community provides plenty of opportunities to have fun!

The Avalon Activities Committee meets monthly to sustain, explore and develop new opportunities that residents and guests may enjoy. Because the committee largely comprises residents who are in regular contact with friends and neighbors, the ideas that are generated by the committee are of broad interest.

From the annual winter Billiards & Pinochle tournament, which was established in 2009 and grows in popularity each year, to its fair-weather companion, the summer Bocce tournament, Avalon activities often involve setting bodies in motion to maintain agility and balance. Weekly tai chi, meditation and yoga classes are fun ways to exercise on a regular basis. The Retired Seniors Volunteer Program holds its twice-weekly Bone Builders sessions at Avalon, too.

For music lovers, either the Dyer’s Den Down Under Pub or the grand living room in the Manor House are venues for live performances by music groups to get toes tapping during Pub Nights, holiday parties, and other special occasions. Music from the baby grand piano often fills the air. Curious minds enjoy presentations by a wide variety of speakers.

Maine is full of beautiful sights to see year round and many fun spots to visit. The Avalon Bus brings residents to visit museums, art exhibits, spectacular gardens … even light displays during the annual Holiday Lights tour! For those who enjoy the great outdoors, cruises on Moosehead Lake and the Penobscot River have been fun ways to enjoy Maine’s natural beauty.

Avalon Village is at the heart of Maine’s world renown natural beauty. Whether venturing near or far, at home or just down the road, residents at Avalon are never short on activities to do or sights to see. With its central location just one hour to breathtaking Acadia National Park, an hour and a half to Baxter State Park and Mt. Katahdin, and two hours to Downeast Maine.

Residents of Avalon Village are also lucky to have Maine’s flagship campus of the University of Maine just minutes away in Orono, including its renowned performance venue, The Collins Center for the Arts. For those who enjoy live performances the area has much to offer whether it be Bangor’s well known American Folk Festival, the Bangor Waterfront Pavilion or the Penobscot Theatre.
