Blair House's residents enjoy a variety of health and fitness activities, from weekly group exercise classes to anytime access to on-site fitness equipment.

There's a group that likes to get outside and walk, they call it the "fresh-air fitness challenge." A certified Arthritis Foundation Instructor comes and leads an exercise class at least 3 times a week, we keep our residents moving.

Enjoy restaurant-style dining served with courtesy and caring by our staff who know you. Chef-prepared meals are served every day in Blair House’s dining room. Sit with friends or invite your family for a special occasion in our private dining room. Each meal is designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of community members.

Our award-winning chef makes just about everything from scratch, and really collaborates with residents to present the best food possible. The omelette to order station is always a crowd favorite.

There’s so much to explore in the Normal area and Blair House makes sure that residents experience as much as possible. Regular outings to favorite restaurants, local events, and more introduce residents to all their neighborhood has to offer and connect them to the surrounding community.

You can join the bi-monthly lunch outings and make friends with fellow foodies! A few of the popular bus excursions are the Miller Park Zoo, baseball games, and various places to shop.

Blair House’s comprehensive calendar is packed with both recurring activities and special events. The variety of available activities is meant to enrich the whole person by stimulating physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, creative, social or vocational wellness.

Residents with a green thumb love to help take care of the community garden. Sometimes the fruits of their labor even end up in the chef's meals!

Furry friends are welcomed as residents at Blair House. We understand how important the companionship and bond that seniors share with their pets. We’re delighted to have cats, dogs, birds, and even bunnies as part of our community.

There's a beautiful outdoor walking track that residents with pets truly enjoy. The pets do too! And any day the therapy animals come to the community for a visit is a very good day.

Blair House is equipped with WiFi access to help you stay connected throughout common areas. You can use a community desktop computer to stay up to date or connect your personal devices to the WiFi.

The exclusive Travel & Stay program offers residents exciting opportunities to travel around the country, with free stays of up to seven days at any of Holiday Retirement’s more than 260 communities. Three chef-prepared meals are included with each trip. Visit all 43 states or just choose a favorite new location or two.

Blair House also operates a program that lets residents get a taste of faraway countries. Once a month, residents can enjoy a themed happy hour with music, food, and presentations related to a new country. They also get a stamp in their community passport.

Many residents find a sense of fulfillment in donating their time and skills to a cause close to their hearts. Pre-school kids come in weekly to perform for the residents. The audience is always packed!

We have empowered residents to become resident ambassadors. These individuals have often lived in the community for quite some time and enjoy helping new residents get acclimated to senior living. They encourage new residents to take their time settling in and them feel comfortable in their new home.
