"The word is out and we're pleased to say that the response is great," said Mrs. Bernard in reference to the festival. Myrtle went on to say that the committee was formed to enable the local residents residents to work toward a common common goal. To know the needs of the seniors with regard regard to meaningful activities. activities. To effectively use "information sharing" with . all Courtice and area. ' "We would like to reach out with a sense of community community spirit, participate and help one another, and share in new : and . old . friendships.", ; Although the churches in the area do a wonderful service service holding special events to get seniors out of their homes for an evening, the committee realizes that everyone does not attend church and as such need another outlet.
