Nursing Home gets back into the swing by Wendy Clark Well I'm back into the swing of things after having a real nice holiday. Sunday August 13th, was the Nursing Homes Family Picnic which was a great success. Ap- proximately 50 people took part in our celebration. A big thank you to Earl and Audrey Geer for cook- ing up all that great barbecued food. A special thank you to the Donut Gallery and Country Style Donuts for donating the delicious donuts. Door prizes were given out to the many lucky winners. Our family and friends also join- ed us in several fun games. Delightful entertainment was pro- vided by Gord Prentice's band and dancers from Uxbridge. A great afternoon was enjoyed by all those in attendance. Our monthly birthday party for August was held on the 16th with our host being 'The Blackstock Group." Some great entertain- ment was featured including Mr. Jim Emmerson and His "Wonder PLUMBING Plumbing Repairs Service / Renovations SERVICE PLUMBING 985-4277 wawwr o som Fast Service Reasonable Rates Work Guaranteed.

The residents activity organization raised approximately $410.00. Thank you to all those who sup- ported us.
