PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, March 14, 1989 -- 47 Seniors enjoy trip to the ROM by Wendy Clark Upon returning from my holi- day in the sunny south, I came back to work to find out that the residents are still being kept very busy. Monday, February 20 a group of Port Perry Brownies paid us a visit and sang us some delightful songs. We really enjoyed this wonderful group of girls. On Wednesday (22) a fairly large group boarded on a bus bound for the Royal Ontario Museum. They managed to visit all 3 floors of the museum. The favourite display that was prefer- red by many was the dinosaurs. A great day was had by all. The Nestleton UCW stopped by on Thursday, Feb. 23 and played hostess for our monthly birthday party. Everyone enjoyed the delicious cake and the birthday residents appreciated their gift. Everyone joined in for a special Bingo game. A special thank you to this fine group for making our birthdays very special. In the evening we had a Pub Night. Many. residents danced away the night to the group the "Golden Slippers." Top scorer for bowling on Mon- day, Feb. 27 was Mr. Ted Whitter with 98 pts. Congratulations Ted! In the evening we had our Heart Hunt Bash. Dorthy Archer won the prize for collecting the most hearts throughout the month of February. We ended the night with a treat of delicious Cherry Cheese cake. With St. Patrick's day coming in mid-March we have begun our Irish Buck Contest. Everytime a resident participates in any ac- tivity in any way then he or she receives an Irish buck. On March 17th we will then hold our Irish Buck Auction at which time the residents will be able to buy items with their hard earned bucks. Tuesday March 7 was designated "Chinese Day." Many residents dressed oriental style in honour of this day. A rather large crowd gathered for 'Tai chi chan" (morning exercises). The kitchen served a very delicious noon meal consisting of a chinese diet. During the afternoon Mrs. M. Wallace entertained us with her film slides from her trip to China. She also brought in for us to view many clothes, shoes, stamps, jade and other oriental articles. Mrs. Louella Short won a prize for the best oriental out- fit. We ended the day by reading our fortunes from our fortune cookies. A very special thank you to Mrs. Wallace for taking time out to show us her pictures.

March meeting by Lillian Harper: There was an excellent atten- dance at our March meeting, which included two visitors, all of whom were welcomed by our President, Mary The roll call 'My favorite sub- ject in school" brought a variety of answers and a bit of reminisc- ing about those "Good old school days." Excellent reports were given by our secretary and treasurer. Several conveners submitted their reports to the secretary in preparation for the annual reports to be given at out annual meeting in April, at which time dues are payable. During the business it was an- nounced that a Leadership Development meeting is to be held in Uxbridge, March 22. Our bazaar is May 17, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and we are hoping for a good display of baked goods and knitted items. Also, we had letters from the Hospital Aux- iliary asking for assistance at their bazaar and bake sale on April 29. There was some discus- sion about our contribution to the Hospital building fund. - Plans were made for serving lunch at the Family Life series on Monday evening, with several of- fers of help. _ The program on 'Education and Cultural Activities," with the motto "The youth of to-day are the nations of tomorrow' was under the leadership of Helen MacMaster and her group. Helen gave an excellent talk on the topic, presenting many thought provoking points for our consideration. Dorothy McLean and Mary Vanham each gave an appropiate reading relating to this impor- tant topic - all in all, a most in- teresting meeting, which ad - ed with the singing of "The Hymn of All Nations," followed by a social hour, which is always most enjoyable.
