The Lion’s Head Friendship Club continues to be a beehive of activity! Seniors in our community are very fortunate to have such a thriving club, offering a wonderful variety of activities, including craft days, games days, lunches, dinners and trips.
A big thank-you to Forty Hills Farm and Flowers for providing the supplies and sharing their expertise to help us with our creations on the September 30th Craft Day!
The fun continued on October 14th with an “All About Apples” Craft Day. Everyone got creative in the kitchen, making a variety of delicious apple desserts.
Games Day on October 17th was well attended. Members enjoyed playing a variety of games, including Play Nine, Fast Track, Skip-Bo and many others. The afternoon was followed by a light dinner, providing a wonderful opportunity for everyone to socialize and enjoy each other’s company.
