OYEN LODGE REPORT: Residents enjoy Halloween party
By Dianne Spath
Hello, everyone. The month of October seemed to go very fast. The weather is getting a bit cooler as we move into November.
It was a busy week at the Lodge. Monday, Personal Touch Clothing and Avon were at the Lodge from 11:00-3:00. There was also a mini bake sale—happy Birthday to Erin Van Koughnett on October 28th.
Tuesday was the regular bus runs downtown followed by decorating for Halloween. Tuesday afternoon the residents bagged candy for Halloween. Gloria had a resident meeting to discuss new business, upcoming events and residents’ concerns.
Wednesday was exercises, followed by Halloween crafts. In the afternoon there were shuffleboard games.
Thursday morning was crossword games, followed by more decorating and baking. Thursday afternoon was a Halloween party. Lisa Gould and Clark Huston played music. Lisa, who is from Consort, played the violin, which was a great duo with Clark. The music was delightful. The residents then handed out candy for Halloween and loved to see the variety of costumes.

Ralph and Marvel Jorgenson have had their daughters Rita Dillabough, Alyss Doyle and Vera Jorgenson Haaf visiting over the last few weeks. Jean Olds was visiting her son in Ferintosh, and her sister in Camrose. It was a nice little getaway before winter. Sandi Jamieson was also away visiting her daughter Nicole in Kitchener, Ontario, and her son Matt in London, Ontario. She had a wonderful two weeks visiting family and enjoying the sites of Ontario.
Alberta Clothing will be at the Lodge on Wednesday, November 6th, from 10:00-2:00.
Happy Birthday to Ken Mick on November 2nd.
Have a wonderful week everyone.
