Happy New Year! The day centre
opened its doors for the new year on
Jan. 3, 1989. Everyone was back in
good spirits but a few pounds
heavier!
December was a busy month at the
day centre. We all enjoyed the
turkey dinners and we thanked the
volunteers for supplying all those
delicious pies for dessert. We would
also like to thank the local Girl
Guides for the scrumptious goodie
trays. We all enjoyed them over the
holidays.
