'The Blyth Swinging Seniors met
in the Blyth Memorial Hall on
January 28 at noon for their pot
luck dinner. About 30 attended and
all enjoyed a lovely meal.
Following the dinner president
Lawrence Plaetzer called the
meeting to order. 0 Canada was
sung accompanied by pianist
Phyllis Boak. A sing-a-long
followed led by Vera Badley and
Hary McDowell. Happy birthday
was sung to Isabelle Craig and
Happy anniversary was sung to Jim
and Erma Mason.
June McDowell introduced the
guest speaker, Ann Brabender who
is program and social services co-
ordinator for Huronlea and
Huronview. She gave an interest-
ing talk on her work at the two
facilities. She said there are 62
beds for long-term residents as well
as residents living in the
apartments. These are under two
different managements.
She told about the new Auxiliary
which has been formed for
Huronlea with Leona Armstrong as
president. One of the first things
they did was donate the club cards
to the people in the apartments
which entitles them to attend any of
the volunteer programs for the
residents unless it was a dinner, in
which case they would pay for that.
Many programs are planned for
the residents, including church
services on Sunday, birthday
parties each month, crafts and
baking, fun and fitness.
Steve Cook of Blyth is active in
this along with his helpers.
She also said volunteers are
always welcome and can do many
little duties for the residents like
writing letters, reading to them or
even taking them for a little drive.
A question and answer period
followed. Ferne McDowell and
Lawrence Plaetzer thanked Ms.
Brabender for attending.
Two humorous readings
followed, "The Snoring Husband"
and "Using a Bank Card".
The minutes were readpy the
secretary. An invitation to
Huronleas's monthly Birthday Party
was received Feb. 10. A committee
was put in to see about program
and several offered to bring lunch.
