OYEN LODGE REPORT: A warm welcome to our new residents

By Dianne Spath

Hello Everyone. I hope everyone had a wonderful Labour Day weekend. The weather is still beautiful for this time of year. Hopefully, everyone’s harvest is going well. Summer holidays are over for the kids, and they are getting back to the school routine again.

Tuesday morning, we had our regular bus run downtown and walked outdoors. The shoe company “If the Shoe Fits” was here from 10 to 2. In the evening, there was a resident council meeting.

Wednesday was another shopping day, as Alberta Clothing and Avon were at the Lodge from 10 to 2. In the afternoon, there was shuffleboard.

Thursday morning, there were crossword games and walking outdoors. In the afternoon, everyone enjoyed the ice cream parlour.

Friday morning, exercises were followed by horse races. In the afternoon, bingo was held, and in the evening, music by the Jorgensons was played. Some residents went to the last Farmer’s Market.

The Oyen Lodge would like to welcome two new residents, Mel Schaefer and Katherine Knull. September 8th is National Grandparents Day, and Beltone will be here on September 11th.

Have a good week, everyone.
