As days grow shorter and weather chillier, it is comforting to gather with friends to laugh, chat, and play cards. Memories of the year’s events are fondly recalled. Potlucks, picnics at the community lakes, lively evening Bingo games, favourite pub nites and luncheons, an afternoon at Stage West, information learned from speakers about dementia and downsizing, summer cards on the patio, Seniors’ Week activities, a February wiener roast, are all frequently mentioned. If you are a senior, 55+, who is searching for an opportunity to venture out and engage with others, please plan on stopping at the community centre to join a card game or to visit, meet our group and learn about our activities. There is no pressure or obligation, only a warm welcome.

Pub Nite: No event scheduled for December. In January, the group will move to a lunch reservation time at a local venue for the winter months.
Food Bank Donations: The Calgary Veteran’s Food Bank has been grateful for Mid-Sun Seniors’ generous support with non-perishable items and cash donations. We have also contributed both food items and pet care articles to AARCS (animal rescue). During the new year, our seniors will continue to help those who struggle with food insecurity.
