Well those guys at SCONA Seniors sure are whippersnappers...now if only we could get them to change their name to RITCHIE Seniors (kidding...sort of)!

Get ready to have a busy October seniors because this month is packed with action:

• Thursday Oct 5 at 12:00 noon: Turkey dinner for all seniors in the community. Turkey and all the trimmings. Loads of fun. Cost is $10 but seniors MUST call SCONA at 780 433 5377 so we know how many to expect. Adult children and grandchildren are welcome to come with their senior.
