Activities & Amenities at Chartwell Oak Park Terrace in Windsor

Our residence is a lively and vibrant place, with a full complement of activities and amenities that are inclusive of everyone. Our LiveNow life enrichment program includes many meaningful experiences, all of which are founded on the six dimensions of wellness—physical, social, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and vocational. These are not “keeping busy” activities, but are purposefully designed to engage, inform, entertain, challenge or inspire you.

Residents at Chartwell Oak Park Terrace have many favourite activities, choosing from a long list that includes a wide range of fitness classes, such as gentle yoga, SMART exercise, and Tai chi. They are always up for learning something new in our FitMinds class, and are also committed to giving back to the Windsor community, volunteering through our H.O.P.E program. You’ll find them in more relaxing pursuits too, catching a classic flick in our movie theatre or strolling our walking path, or enjoying a wine-and-cheese afternoon.

Participate in our engaging activities

How would you like to plan your day at Chartwell Oak Park Terrace? Perhaps you’ll choose one of several fitness options, including Zumba Gold, or Rhythm N’ Moves classes. Or this afternoon, the gardening club is meeting to talk about growing herbs. Bocce ball could be a fun thing to do too. Tomorrow there’s a picnic in Pillette Park, while on the weekend a group is going for lunch at the Wolfhead Distillery. And if you’re a person of faith, there’s the upcoming rosary group and attending Sunday’s worship service. Regardless of your choice, you are in control of your schedule, doing as much, or as little as you like.

Additionally, for those residents with Italian roots—or simply a love for Italian culture— we proudly offer a variety of programs that celebrate Italian traditions. Card groups meet regularly to play traditional favourites like Scopa and Briscola, while our cooking and baking sessions focus on preparing beloved Italian dishes, from handmade pasta to fresh-baked biscotti. We also partner with local Italian clubs and community centres, bringing even more opportunities for connection and celebration right to your doorstep.

Explore our variety of on-site amenities

Because Chartwell Oak Park Terrace is located on one level, it’s easy for residents to meet and socialize, with open-concept spaces that invite spontaneous gatherings. In our bright village-like setting, it’s also easy to connect to the outdoors, stepping out onto our patios to watch the birds or to see what’s blooming in our peaceful gardens. All of our amenity spaces at Chartwell Oak Park Terrace are designed to empower you to pursue the activities you love, and to connect with others in meaningful ways. Can you see yourself watching a movie on the large projection screen in our dedicated theatre? Or exploring your creative side in a craft class in the multi-functional room? Our lounge is the perfect place to sit by the fireplace, and our chapel gives our residents a special place to worship or reflect.
