Queensway activities Hello. and welcome to Queensway news! This past week we've been very busy at Queensway with several activities. and now is the time that -we" get to share them with you. To begin our last week of April. we had the pleasure of welcoming the ladies from the Hensall Presbyterian Church for their last "bingo" visit this month. We've enjoyed having them in to run our Monday afternoon bingos, and we'd like to thank them for all their help. Rev. Bob Sinasac came in Tuesday afternoon to conduct— our weekly' church service. Phillipa Steckle ac- companied us on the piano while we ang our favourite hymns. Wednesday afternoon several of us went bowling for the afternoon. -We had a super afternoon of friendly competition. We'd like to con- - gratulate Murray Howe for the men's top score, and Muriel Gunning for leading the ladies' division. Thursday morning we held our - , monthly Resident Council meeting. which was followed in the afternoon with the monthly birthday party. At this time we'd like to wish our April birthdays all the best for the upcom- ing year. Happy Birthday to Albert Miazga, Murray Hoe, Ross Thomp- son, Clayton :)lathers and Dora foga rth." Thursday evening several of us en- joyed watching ourselves. This may sound a bit strange. but actually we were viewing a video tape that was taken last December al our Family hri • mas4rinner'bS-Bill-Gibson. Friday -afternoon we all gathered tor "The Sharing of -Stories". Together we discussed our favourite things such as food, travelling; animals etc. While we were enjoying. "The Sharing of Stories" the Rest Home were biding farewell to Sally Ann Mathews with a delightful tea party.

Anyone interested can contact Pat Westlake. The October rally will be held the first.Saturday night in October. After two more numbers by the Steckles Ron introduced Rev. Austin Gedke from Orangeville who was guest speaker. His theme was "Procrastinate. Using scripture and examples 01 what it meant. Gedke said to remember Thy creator in the days of Thy youth.
