The Lucknow Sentinel, 1988-05-04, Page 7Thank you Fo buying Seniors' Day Centre By Pam Williams As the song says "though April showers may come your way, They bring the flowers that bloom in May." The Day Centre for the Homebound in Wingham has special programs blooming for the entire month of May. Our social and recreational programs continue with a special guest speaker, Muriel Coultes of Belgrave, who has recently returned from a trip to Ethiopia. Mrs. Coultes will help us with some arm chair travelling to a nation we are eager to hear more about. Day Centre staff will be attending an an- nual conference of three associations. The Older Adult Centres Association of On- tario's Meals -on -Wheels Association and the new Ontario Home Support Associa- tion. The joint conference will be held in Ottawa from May 16-19. Some of the infor- mative workshops we will be attending are Advocacy on Behalf of the Elderly, Care for the Caregivers, 55 Alive - Safe Driving for Older Adults, Fundraising, Liability In- surance, Rural Transportation and many other interesting sessions. A special movie afternoon will be held at the centre on Thursday May 19th with pop- corn and all the trimmings. The feature film will be "Blue Skies" starring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire. Later in the month we will have special activities to help celebrate "National Fitness Week". Once again we'll try our annual trek to the Moon (yes, that's right). Older adults will try to walk, hop or move and accumulate mileage to equal the distance from the earth to the moon. Should be lots of fun! A special mystery bus trip is planned in May. Sorry ... I can't divulge the destinations. The Foot Clinics, provided by Communi- ty Nursing Services continue with clinics on the llth and the 26th. Please call the centre at 357-1445 for an appointment. National Access Week is from May 28th - June 3rd. On Monday May 30, there will be an access awareness day in the Wingham Armoury to bring attention to the com- munity, the barriers that are created for people with handicaps in the community. Several of the area community leaders will demonstrate how difficult it is to be mobile if you use a wheelchair or if you have a visual problem etc ... Information displays will also be on view in the ar- moury for public viewing from 10 am -2 pm. A thought for the month is "Man does not cease to play because he grows old, he grows old because he ceases to play." Spring shopping here Pinecrest News Spring shopping has hit Pinecrest again. On May 26th from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Silverts Clothing will be here to help you purchase a new wardrobe. They specialize in clothing for the wheelchair person and other hard to find items. There are also the regular styled outfits. The month of April has been very busy we would like to thank the United Church Ladies, Chalmers Ladies, 'Eastern Star, Salvation Army, Christian Reform Ladies, Pentecostal Church and Grades 1, 2 and 3 for coming to entertain us.

After the opening remarks and welcome to everyone, the scripture was read by president Mrs. Elizabeth Irvin and the meditation given by Mrs. Janet Wilkins. Hymn "Walk Softly in Springtime" was sung followed by prayer by the president. A trio of ladies from South Kinloss Presbyterian Church rendered 2 lovely musical numbers during the evening. Mrs. Ruth Alton introduced the guest speaker Mr's. Muriel Coultes from Belgrave who showed slides and gave a very interesting account of her trip to Ethiopia in March of this year.
