SENIORS LIFESTYLES Have a bazaar time at the Acton Centre By JULIE CONROY Acton Seniors Centre May 12 is fast approaching. This is the date of our annual Spring Bazaar, starting at 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. Members are busy baking and making crafts, and sorting through their books, games and plants ready for the bazaar. Even if you don't need any knick knacks from Granny's Attic, the tea is worth the drive to the Centre. The bazaar gives you a great opportunity to purchase something from the bake table to take to a special person on Mother's Day, which is the next day. If you have baking your would like to donate, please bring it to the Centre before 10 a.m. Books, games, cafts, plants or items for the Country Store can be brought to the Centre this week. If you have any clean plastic bags that would be suitable for us to use for books, etc., please drop them off at the Centre Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Well, it's party time again at the Acton Seniors Centre. On Tuesday, May 15, we will be having our May social evening. On the menu is lasagna, Caesar salad, garlic bread and a surprise dessert. Sounds like a taste of Italy. Martin Chan is a crooner and he will be entertaining us, which will give us a chance to sit back and enjoy the music, or get up and dance. Tickets are still available. Our movie of the month is Iron Lady-- Meryl Streep at her finest! Show time is May 15 at 1 p.m. Have you picked up your latest copy of HillsView? It is available at the Acton Public Library, and of course, the Seniors Centre. There is lots of interesting things to do and places to go listed in this quarter's copy. The winners on the monthly bus trip to Rama were Marion Hunter, the 50/50 and this was her first time on the Rama bus; Shirley Beaumont, the birthday prize and Wilma Champion, Shirley Hunter, Mary Vander Sanden and Jeanne Burke, lucky seats. Did you know we have a lovely scrabble board that has hardly been used? If you would like to play scrabble, it will be out on Thusdays. All we need are the players. At Bid Euchre on Thursday afternoon Elma Braida had two mooners and Bernie MacMillan, Ruth Burke and Frances Hogenbirk each had one. It was nice to see new faces. By FLORENCE RIEHL Georgetown Seniors Centre What a busy beginning to May starting with another full house Spring Alia/ Tan Jay Fashion Show on Thursday, May 3. Thanks to all who volunteered their time to model, work in the kitchen and set up and clean up. All these elements are needed to make the event a success. Unfortunately the Spring Bazaar held on Saturday, May 5 was not very well attended. Perhaps bazaars are becoming passé. Christ the King Culinary class hosted a Mother's Day Tea on Tuesday, May 8. I would say from the service they presented there will be many great chefs in our future.
