Hill View Manor summer
Residents continue to enjoy activities in Hill View Manor.

ESTEVAN - A very special thank you to the businesses that donated a wonderful Easter basket to our residents for the holiday.

A big thank you goes out to KFC, Eddie Webster's, A Loving Touch Florist, B&V Trucking, Estevan Eye Care and Scotsburn Dental. Thanks for the kindness and care shown to the residents of our home; it was very appreciated by the residents and generated smiles.

April entertainment included the Caragana Ramblers, Maggie, the Sacakas Family, Laurie Fornwald, Susan Shepard, Wilma and Val, and Keith and Gary. On April 22, we went to Make Music with Friends, which is an all-time favorite outing for our residents.

A very special thank you goes out to the Lischka Family for the donation to the residents of an Indoor curling game. We are very appreciative of this gift. Our residents will enjoy this very much.

May outings will be to Walmart for shopping and the Black Grasshopper for lunch.

In May, we have four birthdays: May Lischka and Pat Parent will turn 92, Clara Craigen celebrates her 91st birthday and Theresa Dukart will be 95. Happy birthday to all.

Many activities are planned for May for the residents. The first Wednesday of the month is Catholic mass, followed by the Trinity Lutheran Church communion in the afternoon. The first Thursday of the month is the residents' meeting where they give feedback on what is going on.

The Gospel Chapel comes the third Sunday of the month. Devotions for the residents are held Wednesday late afternoon; it is non-denominational. Residents look forward to exercises, Bingo, card games, crokinole, a bean bag toss, various board games and more.

May 10 is our Mother’s Day tea for our women of the home. Letters from family members will be read to each and every one of them, with a copy being given to the mothers. Thank you to the families for sending such beautiful letters to their mother or grandmother, telling them how special they are.

The Estevan Public Library book exchange is on the second Tuesday of the month. The library has been coming once each month for a craft afternoon as well; this is part of their outreach program. The residents that attend this sure do love and enjoy it.  Thanks for such a wonderful program.

The last Friday of the month is loonie bingo followed by wine and cheese, or fruit juice for anyone not wanting wine.
