Oyen Lodge News: Prep for Valentine’s Day

By Sara Heath

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather; it sure has been nice for residents to get outside for a walk around the building. We are crossing our fingers that there will be no more cold spells in the upcoming weeks before spring arrives.

This week at the lodge, we have started to prep for Valentine’s Day; our arts and crafts group has begun to paint some vases with reds and pinks. We also started making homemade roses out of ribbons, which have turned out nicely! The snow melted a lot this week, so residents can go out for walks in the mornings. The start of a new month means that we are also celebrating all the birthdays this month, of which we have quite a few for February. As always, we throw in a game of bingo and horse races every week, as well as our favourite card game, Phase Ten.

We hope everyone else has a wonderful week.
