28 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Thursday, December 28, 1989 Nursing home a busy place by Wendy Clark Christmas Day has gracefully floated by with each and everyone enjoying this lovely festive holi- day. Many were able to go home for the day but for those who re- mained they were paid a visit by Santa bearing gifts. Monday December 11th, lots of residents were kept busy decorating Christmas trees. In the evening the "Big V" drug store sponsored a travelling store which enabled our residents to do some shopping. Tuesday after- noon a bus load headed to Niagara Falls to view the beautiful Christmas lights and go out for a wonderful supper. Those who stayed behind took part in a sing-song. The following day we had Breakfast with Santa. This activity was thoroughly enjoyed by many residents. Later in the day there was a Residents Coun- cil meeting. On the 14th, we had our monthly birthday party. Our _ friends from the Senior Citizen Choir were our host for this special occasion. The week ended with a silk scarf workshop. Many beautiful scarves were made. Monday, December 8, we had movies. Three exciting movies were watched by many. Over sup- per hour we had several go out to the Rotary Club Dinner. Everyone devoured the delicious turkey dinner and thoroughly en- joyed the entertainment. Also we had a delightful visit from the "Blackstock Guides. Well Tuesday was the big day for our annual - APPLES for SALE - Christmas Party. A very special thank you to Mr. Larry Mabely for saving the day by becoming our last minute call-in Santa. We also send out our appreciation to the great entertainers and to the kitchen staff for the delicious meal that was prepared for the residents and their families. The following day many were 'recuperating from their big par- ty. In the afternoon a few ladies made silk earrings that will match the many scarfs that were already previously made. In the evening a small group travelled to the High School for a viewing of their Christmas concert. Others back at home enjoyed a visit by the Pathfinders. Thursday morn- ing, the Grade 1 French Immer- sion Choir visited and sang us many delightful songs. The after- noon was spent busily preparing the Chirstmas pudding for Christmas dinner. The Legion members carolled throughout the halls in the evening hours. The last day before the holidays we spent watching a Christmas movie and then enjoyed a couple of hours of sippin' and singin'. Birthday wishes are extended to Mr. Bordon Barry (6) and Mrs. Inez Rowett (10). At the present we have not worked on plans for upcoming events but I will be sure to post them in the next column. On behalf of the residents and staff of the Community Nursing Home we wish you all a safe and happy New Year.
