“then followed that beautiful season, Summer!

Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light;

and the landscapre lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.”

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

It’s Officially Summer!  Sun Safety Tips

• Cover up: protect your skin as much as possible. Cover up with light clothing, a hat, and a cool pair of UV protected sunglasses. Families please bring for residents!
• Limit your time in the sun: enjoy the warmth of the sun from a shaded area.
• Use sunscreen: Put on sunscreen when going out in the sun. It prevents skin damage and you avoid burning. Remember to reapply when necessary!
• Drink plenty of cool liquids before you feel thirsty! No one wants to be dehydrated.

CHRISTMAS IN JULY

Christmas in July celebration is deliberately ironic, the July climate is typically hot and sunny, as opposed to the cold and snowy conditions traditionally associated with Christmas celebrations.

Join us on Thursday July 25th @ 2:00 for our Christmas in July Party! We will be singing Christmas Carols around our  holiday tree, eating   festive cookies, and have some holly jolly fun to mark the  halfway point to Christmas. ALL WELCOME.

 

NEW RESIDENTS AND FAMILY MEET AND GREET

Recreation welcomes all new residents and families to a meet and greet night. Tuesday July 30th 2019 at 6:00pm. We will be reviewing some information about AgeCare you may have missed during the move in process. You will get a chance to meet new families and residents in the building as well. We will take a tour of the building (including some of the behind the scenes areas). Please RSVP to twhite@agecare.ca if you are interested in attended.
