Cornwall Manor Society

about the cornwall manor society

The Cornwall Manor Society, organized in October 1950, is the auxiliary group that supports Cornwall Manor Retirement Community and celebrated their 75th Anniversary in 2025! This volunteer group consists of Cornwall Manor residents and individuals from the surrounding community.

The Society’s mission is to support the ministry of Cornwall Manor by building relationships both on and off campus, by providing opportunities for volunteers to bring services and programs to Corson Hall and Health Center residents and by raising funds for Benevolent Care.

Four Cornwall Manor Society meetings are held annually – 2026 meeting dates are March 19, June 18, September 17 and November 19.

Mark your calendar for the Annual Blooms & More Festival on Saturday, May 2, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM! This lively event features an expansive plant sale with houseplants, mixed containers, and USDA organic vegetables, herbs, annuals, and perennials. Browse a silent auction filled with unique items, gift certificates, and themed baskets, and visit the Cornwall Manor Woodworkers and Crafters tables showcasing beautiful handmade creations. Enjoy baked goods, homemade fudge, shopping at the Manor Shoppe and Treasure Trove, guided tours of the historic Buckingham Mansion and Railroad Club, and much more—all in one festive morning.

The Cornwall Manor Society operates two shoppes that are open to residents, employees and community members. Both shoppes accept cash and checks. All proceeds from the Manor Shoppe and the Treasure Trove benefit programs and projects of the Cornwall Manor Society.

  • The Manor Shoppe (gift shop and convenience store) is located in the Freeman Community Center and features items like greeting cards, decorations, fashion accessories, chocolates and grocery items. The Manor Shoppe is open on Mondays from 9 AM to 3 PM, Tuesday-Fridays from 9 AM to 1 PM and on Saturdays from 11 AM to 1 PM.
  • The Treasure Trove (thrift store) is located next to the Buckingham Mansion and features gently used men and women’s clothing, jewelry, kitchen items (dishes, glassware, small appliances), furniture, linens, books and much, much more. Donations are also accepted during business hours. The Treasure Trove is open on Wednesdays from 12-4 PM and Saturdays 10 AM-2 PM.
