A lot of laughs were had as everyone had their faces dis- guised and topped with hats and ribbons. We enjoyed a lively Halloween party with the Staffa Old Tyme band. A Saturday afternoon was spent visiting with youth from local parishes who were attending the St. James church retreat. Father Gillespie, Joan Stewart, Pastor Steve and Rev. Wilson led in worship service for the month. Craft classes with Betty Harris and Barbara Scott were spent putting the finishing touches to the crafts that will be featured in our penny sale that will run from Nov. 9 to 29. Elgin Nott and Alex Murray played along with Art and Eleanor Horst who led in a morn- ing singalong. Lively games of crokinole with our volunteers is always a perfect way to start the week. Bingo with Betty Hulley is also a popular activity as everyone wonders who will be the king or queen of the game. Residents enjoyed musical afternoons with Marjory Papple as well as Bill Gibson. Ladies gathered to welcome Lois Hodgert who came to do manicures. Nails were trimmed and polished to perfection. part in orientation for new members Gord Coulter of Queensway's Retirement Residence laid a wreath at Hensall's cenotaph during the community Remembrance ceremony Sunday, Nov. 6 at 11 a.m. Queensway is planning a special Remembrance Day service led by Pastor Elly Van Bergen on Friday, Nov. 11 at 2 p.m. with several Legion members in attendance.
