'No one minded' that haggis was not a part of
Robbie Burns Day celebration at Queensway
Queensway volunteers, Lillian Beer,
Francis Kinsman and Donna Smale
came through for the residents Jan.
24 during the Alzheimer Walk For
Memories when they walked on behalf
of residents unable to participate.
Robbie Burns Day was celebrated at
Queensway Sunday, Jan. 25 when our
student Cassie gathered residents in
the sunroom for Robbie Burns trivia
questions.
One resident played a number of
Scottish songs on the keyboard with
others singing along
and everyone contrib-
uted their knowledge
about Robert Burns, his
songs and poems. The traditional Hag-
gis wasn't a part of the program but no
one minded.
Monday, in acknowledgement of the
Chinese New Year, Chinese food was
served at the noon meal. The highlight
for residents seemed to be the Fortune
Cookies which foretold a number of
funny and unlikely events for resi-
ammism.dents.
In the after-
noon, several resi-
dents gathered for a
bingo in the sunroom with staff calling
the numbers and assisting.
Church was held in the sunroom on
Tuesday with staff leading the devo-
tional assisted by resident volunteer
Fred Buchanan, who led in prayer and
resident volunteer Marjorie Freeman,
who played the hymns on our keyboard
accompanying the singing.
