Elvis entertains at Queensway birthday party HENSALL - Residents of Queensway Nursing Home gath- ered for a birthday party Thursday evening and watched Elvis sing lots of his classic songs. Those who were celebrating birthdays this month included Laurene Wein, Bill Eveland, Aleida Kats, Luella Hale, Helen Wells, Dorothy Page and Ha- zel Mason. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the show. Earlier in the week, another group of residents got together for Breakfast Club. They enjoyed a de- licious brunch - pie, bacon and cheese, and English muffins with preserves. Later the same day, a good friend, Pastor Larry Stojkovic from Dashwood Lutheran Church performed the weekly church ser- vice. On Wednesday, a group of wom- en gathered to do some baking. This was a practice run for baking that was to be submitted to the Hensall Fair. Volunteers were out to help on Saturday's Great Garage Sale. Al- though the weather did not look promising, they stuck through it to help make the day a success. Many people supported the fundraising efforts by buying coffee and donuts or stopping at the barbecue on Main Street. Upcoming June 6 at 10 a.m. there will be a Volunteer Auxiliary meeting. A Birthday Party will be held June 23 at 7 p.m. and a strawberry social for the Alzheimer Society is on June 28 at 6 p.m. Elvis visits Hensall Residents at the Queensway Nurs-'""'r""' ing Home were treated to a visit from Elvis last Thursday night.

Seniors wait for spring weather AI LSA CRAIG - The Keenagers at Craigwiel Day Centre for Sen- iors are wondering just when spring is actually going to get here. The walks and trips usually taken in May, have been either cancelled or have been duller affairs than usual. There has been fun in recalling springs of yesterday, with the gath- ering of maple sap done with hors- es and sleighs; of the spring break- up of roads, and trying to negotiate a car around or through those mud holes, and perhaps even getting mired in them. It looked quite spring the day the residents made colourful gum drop trees for Easter! Then on Easter Monday, Creative Director took_ them to her place for coffee, and to see the new china cupboard/hutch her husband had crafted for them. Their travels also took the resi- dents to see the swans out ir. Lambton, to Heywoods for lunch and to a delicious meal at Anna *Maes in Millbank. Tom Hayman visited the Centre again to show some slides of birds and secret places in London that could bring pleasure to anyone! Evelyn McNaughton showed a easy chair tour of the Caribbean, and the Co-ordinator gave a won- derful trip to Holland complete with dutch soup for lunch. Two new games crafted by Nor- man Smith have been getting a real work out. Dutch shuffleboard has gone over with a bang and their version of "Wheel of For- tune" got a good response as well. Marilyn Cox again delighted the group with a talk on gardening. Mother's Day became a special celebration . The Creative Director contacted all the families and asked them to send in reasons that their family member should be"Woman of the Year". The Fri- day before Mother's Day, these letters were read, with the recipi- ent sitting in a place of honour. There were all kinds of awards. such as "Quest Award", "Joviality Award." "Tenacity Award" and even a "Tapfer Durchgehalten Award". There was barely a dry cye in the room by the end. Perhaps you would like to join in their activities. It has proven to be a boon to other lonely or isolated people. Those who find foot care and a bath and an opportunity to socialize with others like their day at the Centre as well. Make bedtime story time.
