Seniors Day at the Gellert Centre was a great success last Tuesday with 65 mem- bers from Georgetown and Acton enjoying the event. There were quite a few non- members out to see what the two Centres might have that might interest them. We all enjoyed the music and sing- ing by James Cormier, and found it hard to resist danc- ing. He made several ladies happy by crooning to them (shades of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra). Tetyana Babyich had us up dancing to a Latin American beat and jiving, Later Belinda Gallagher gave a demonstration of flower arranging with tips on how to make the flow- ers in the garden brighten homes. During lunch, Bren- da Moher talked about the Good Food Box program and how important it is to eat a variety of fruits and vegetable. Heather Morris- Stokes instructed members how the use a defibrillator and Peter from Halton Cam- era showed how to get the best pictures from digital cameras. The day closed with members participating in a Yoga class. The carpet bowlers en- joyed a great afternoon; I understand Ivan Bozic saved the day by taking out five balls with a marvellous shot, which gave the Black team the winning score of 15 to 10. Betty Blain was captain of the Black team and Marg Haring captain of the Browns. Mae Milton had the only Mooner at bid Euchre last week and this week it was Muriel Dzierla. and Frances Hogenbirk Starting on Tuesday, July 8 and running until the end of August, we will have a Drop in and Chat, with coffee and cookies from 10 a.m.12 p.m. This is a great way of beating the heat and finding someone to talk with. Nine Gals on the Go had an enjoyable evening tasting and learning about the different beers made at the Wellington Brewery in Guelph. We had a tour of the facility, and a very nice young man instructed us on the finer points of beer making. There were five dif- ferent types of beer, and it was interesting to hear every ones opinion of the different brands, everything from a light lager, to a dark ale. A very pleasant evening. The person at the desk is always glad of com- pany during the summer months. If you are finding the weather too warm you can always use the Centre (or arena if we are closed) as a cooling centre. The garage sale was a great success. We decided to be cautious with the weather, and set up in side the Seniors Centre. People were very generous with donations, and we were very happy with the out- come. So that should add approximately $1,000 to our Looking to the Future fund. Its amazing how the loonies and toonies add up. The 50/50 was not won this week, so the pot starts to grow. SWING, SWING: Tetyana Babyich and Livia Almeido cant resist dancing to the music at the Gellert Centre Seniors Day last week. Tetyana teaches ballroom dancing at the Georgetown Seniors Centre. Julie Conroy photo Car - tractor collision A collision between a car and a tractor on the Guelph Line, just north of 20 Side Road at about 6:10 p.m. on Thursday, June 12 resulted in charges of careless driving against the 23-year-old Lakefield, Ont. man driving the car. Halton Police said a 2002 Pontiac Sunfire was travel- ling north on the Guelph Line, passing several vehicles going in the same direction. The Pontiac was executing one such passing sequence at the crest of a hill when it met a pick-up truck travelling in the southbound lane. The car veered into the northbound lane, colliding into the rear of a large farm tractor which displayed a slow moving vehicle sign and had amber and red flashing lights. The Pontiac driver was taken to Milton Hospital for laceration treatment. The tractor driver was not injured. Police said alcohol and speed were factors in the collision.
