Seniors'
Day Centre News
By Rita Rice
The month of June is
Senior Citizens' Month
across Canada and the
theme this year once again
is: "We all have a lot to
share."
In keeping with the theme
there will be a community
information day on June 28.
Local agencies providing
services to seniors in the
area will have represen-
tatives available to discuss
programs. Refreshments
.also will be served. This is a
great opportunity for senior
citizens in the area to
discover what services are
available.
Last week the staff and
board members from the
centre attended the first
Home -Support Conference in
Ontario. Home -support
services are a growing
concern across the province
and include such things as
meals -on -wheels, home-
making, friendly visiting and
day centres.
The services all are aimed.
at providing support for
people so they can remain in
their own homes instead of in
institutions. The conference
covered such topics as
volunteers, fund=raising, the
needs of the rural elderly,
non-profit agencies and the
role and responsibilities of
board members.
The next regular board
meeting is June 10 and the
annual meeting is June 20.
The next foot clinic at the
centre will be June 13 from
10 a.m. to 12 noon,.
In honor of Senior Citizens'
Month, we will be viewing
the film "Something to
Celebrate". It is a film about
the joys of growing older and
being active. The film will be
shown the last two weeks of
June, but phone the centre
for more details.
The guest speaker June 11
will be Father ._Stan _.Soltysik---
from Sacred Heart Church in
Wingham. Everyone is
welcome to hear about
"Father Stan's" trip to the
Holy Land.
A thought for., this week is:
"Old age to the unlearned is
winter to the learned it is
harvest."
